Don't think, it could only hurt the ballclub.

Although that name may be too long.

I’ve always thought that “Serenity” had a vaguely funereal sound.

I'm spent, just can't rosterbate anymore.

I concur.

Awesome

I just watched that movie on Saturday. It’s frickin’ intense. I remember when I first saw it in the theaters, towards the end I was half-convinced that all the main characters were going to die. It’s too bad that show/movie never found the audience it deserved.

I thought Mal was going to head back, only to find all his crew dead. I was very happy they didn’t kill them all off!

I'm thinking but nothing's happening.

Thanks for the link, and the opportunity to vote.

What about the other environmental controls?

I’m not crazy about any of the names.

You’re all out of love for the names, in other words?
