just a bad a$$ mother-cker from flesh and bone (and a snake in his head, of course), I will never forget the episode when the Jack was tortured by him, gosh, that was just beautiful ep :x

you make a fine argument here, but if this is the case though, it would negate the necessity of having entities whose purpose is to prevent the timeline being changed, ergo, it CAN be changed...

edit: "still keeping history intact"... i kinda always looked at the Doctor's as being a course correction role in the grand scheme of things, so i do agree with you there... by the same token we have seen the Doctor's actions change things onto a course that was never supposed to happen, eg Satellite 5...

very nice quote, btw...

You're right... unless what happened on Satellite 5 was always supposed to happen. If it had not, the Doctor couldn't have corrected it.

You might be able to change the time line, and if you are, you were always supposed to... I know, this is a cheaters argument.. it's sort of using religious logic, so I'm not too proud of it
By that I mean that this argument can not be disproved, unless a paradox actually happens... but if a paradox would happen, there would be no one here to prove it

I know, I liked the quote too.. thought it would fit nicely in these forums

Oh, and I got this great quote, when I watched the International:
"There is a difference between truth and fiction. Fiction has to make sense...

edit: and not to imply that you are Martha fucking Jones either mxy... your ass is way finer...

yeah, there is... couldn't tell you what it is though... guy i used to share house with insisted that all cussing should be done in Klingon...

well, you could say that.... but you would be wrong...

Time isn't a line.. it's wibbely wobbely stuff...

Was there ever a Klingon swear?

Sounds more like the infinate improbability drive

I'm with Karen on this one, that's minutia I'd rather not be involved in!  TARDIS's

that's TARDii, buddy

well, you could say that.... but you would be wrong...
