==Matt feedback loop file==
==Episode Checklist==
My computer (and probably a few others') do not support .ogg format. Would you mind reuploading [[Image:Powers peter matt.ogg]]. [[User:Shoyru1177|Shoyru1177]] 18:51, 21 June 2008 (EDT)
*Is it Kosher for newbies to add items to the checklist or is there a specific protocol for what can be added to the checklist? What has to happen before we can put an _X_ in an entry's blank? ([[User:NissanVersaDootDoot|NissanVersaDootDoot]] 23:08, 4 October 2007 (EDT))
* Unfortunately, .OGG is the only audio format supported by MediaWiki for uploads by default, in part because it's free and open source. Codecs like MP3 are actually proprietary and licensed and thus cost money.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 11:42, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
** The checklists are there to provide a convenient reference per episode to make sure that everything that needs to be updated gets updated. For each new episode there are a ton of things that need to be be updated like per-character episode summaries, article of the week info, the sections in the episode article itself, etc. This way one can glance over it quickly and see what's left to be done. Anything significant in an episode that will require an article can generally be added to the checklist. So if there's something important in a given episode, you want to make sure that it gets updated/created, and it fits into one of the sections already on the checklist you can add it. Marking it with an X is done when the task is taken care of (e.g. Claire is marked off once her episode summary is written and added to [[Claire]]). ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 23:20, 4 October 2007 (EDT))
** And it's totally kosher for anybody to add anything that needs to be done to the checklist.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 23:39, 4 October 2007 (EDT)

== Power theft cleanup ==

* Thanks for getting that. I must have switched up tabs when I was editing the page, so thanks.--[[User:Baldbobbo|Bob]] 17:07, 9 October 2007 (EDT)

== Timeline ==

When you get a chance, could you work your magic and add [[Template:PortalDecember2006February2007]]? Thanks! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 19:06, 9 October 2007 (EDT)
* Since there are three months, I'm assuming we don't need to link the individual days (i.e. it should be more like [[Template:PortalPreeclipse]] than [[Template:PortalOctober2006]])?--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 20:29, 9 October 2007 (EDT)
**Yeah. I tried to adjust the picture of the preeclipse calendars to fit, but only one of the months was able to be adjusted. I figured I'd ask the source. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:35, 9 October 2007 (EDT)

== Mohinder's office ==

* Not sure if you noticed, but the most recent standardized version of Micah's file you uploaded is 158k. Think that could get knocked down to closer to 50k? That's about the size of the ones I uploaded and they still look good to me at 50k. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 00:27, 11 October 2007 (EDT))
** Yeah, lately my images are coming out huge. I musta knocked the quality up on my jpg compression or something. In any case, as long as all the ones you uploaded are the same size (as each other, not necessarily 450x350), we can just delete that Micah ... it's a duplicate of the one you upped.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 00:31, 11 October 2007 (EDT)
*** Yeah, I took the time to make sure my coordinates were all the same when I was cropping, so they should all be the same. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 00:43, 11 October 2007 (EDT))

== Evolution Image ==

[[Image:Evolution.jpg|thumb|left]]Tell me that the [[:Image:Evolution.jpg|evolution image]] isn't crying out for a sixth figure that's flaming or just starting to take flight.
*I'm assuming you mean "flaming" as in somebody like [[Ted]], not as in somebody, like, say, [[Zach]]? :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 11:13, 11 October 2007 (EDT)
**Er, yea. [[Ted]] or [[Meredith Gordon|Meredith]]. Flaming, not ''<font color="#FF00CC">flaming</font>''. -- [[User:FissionChips|FissionChips]] 11:24, 11 October 2007 (EDT)<br>
[[Image:Evolutionary.JPG|thumb|left]]* Ahem. --[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 16:55, 5 November 2007 (EST)

== Sanderses' ==

* Could you check out [[Talk:The Sanderses' home]]? Some more discussion as to the correctness of Sanderses' that could use your input. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 19:21, 14 October 2007 (EDT))

== Group of 12 pic ==
Why not allow the composite of the several framed-screen caps stay? Yes the clarity was a little less because of the merging, but it gives us ...ALL 12...of the twelve, as the picture is without the hand overprints. We could add all the frames individually to the gallery also, but having a single picture containing all the 12 is better. <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 10/16/2007 18:29 (EST)</small>
* Read the [[:Image talk:Group of twelve.jpg|talk page]]. Somebody uploaded a [[:Image:Heroes 12.jpg|better version of the composite]] to a different file name. There's no point in having two composites, particularly in the gallery.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 18:31, 16 October 2007 (EDT)

== t-shirt ==

* I assume your t-shirt did arrive, right? It got sent out a long time ago and I just want to make sure. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 20:13, 16 October 2007 (EDT))
** Oh yeah. Whoops. Sorry. I was thinking about leaving you a message to that effect and somehow convinced myself I already had.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 20:17, 16 October 2007 (EDT)

== Theories, condensed ==

You're always good for a hearty chuckle. Thanks. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 23:45, 16 October 2007 (EDT)
* Really, it's all the OMG THIS VAGUELY BROWN WOMAN MUST BE MRS. DEVEAUX / NANA / PAULETTE HAWKINS / THE SUPERSPEED AGENT / ALL FOUR AT ONCE theories that finally did it. I've been thinking of adding that section for a while, but these theories reminded me to do so.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 23:47, 16 October 2007 (EDT)
* BTW, if you can think of any more, please feel free to expand it!--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 23:49, 16 October 2007 (EDT)
**Everyone dead must come back to life also [[User:Rayhond|Rayhond]] 23:53, 16 October 2007 (EDT)
*** Yeah, sorry about blowing out your edit. We've been having some trouble with edit conflicts lately. Still, GMTA.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 23:54, 16 October 2007 (EDT)

== Dawsons ==

Lucky you, I'll let you work on the [[Template:Dawson Tree]] :) The way I understand it, Nana and Paulette are either sisters or sisters-in-law. Nana's son is MIA, but he and Monica's mother had two children, Monica and Damon. That would make DL and Monica's mom first cousins. Micah and Monica/Damon would be second cousins. Nana is Micah's great-aunt. That seems right to me, but it's entirely possible that I'm way off. (Incidentally, I also think we should have an article about Monica's mom.) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 01:06, 17 October 2007 (EDT)
* Hmm. For now, we have no real in-world confirmation of a lot of the relationships. It's probably best to just stick to the immediate Dawsons (Nana, Mom and Pop Dawson, and Monica and Damon) until we get an idea of how they're related to the Hawkinses. Then we can do one giant horking tree for everybody, which should be fun.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 01:13, 17 October 2007 (EDT)

== Image map problems ==

* Check out the discussion [[Talk:Group_of_twelve#Image_Map_Problem|here]] about the [[Group of twelve]] image map not working properly for some people in IE. I switched the image back to the static one for now until it's fixed. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 11:37, 17 October 2007 (EDT))
** Check the discussion [[Talk:Group_of_twelve#Image_Map_Problem|here]] again. The IE bug has been patched on BionicWiki.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 18:40, 18 October 2007 (EDT)

== Your user picutre gives me seizures... ==

especially when I've been up for as long as I have today.--[[User:Baldbobbo|Bob]] <span style="font-size: 7pt;">([[User talk:Baldbobbo|Talk]])</span> 05:49, 19 October 2007 (EDT)

== Images for Portals ==

*I'm currently looking for an image for [[List of references to Heroes]] to go in the portal, but, right now, it's hit a dead end. I think the Simpsons trailer - "Save the Beerdrinker, Save the World" would be good for it, but I can't find a pic right now. Still looking though.--{{User:Lost Soul/sig}} 04:32, 21 October 2007 (EDT)
**Yeah, I ran into a bunch of dead links and gave it up for now. Good luck; maybe somebody has one of the clips saved.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 04:33, 21 October 2007 (EDT)
***We can only hope.--{{User:Lost Soul/sig}} 04:33, 21 October 2007 (EDT)

== Just wondering.. ==

Do you have any suggestions you can make for my page on powers? Also, check out my most recent one, under Fan powers. I know my videos need a little work but I'm getting there. And, if you can get your hands on a camera, contribute some videos. :D--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 22:50, 21 October 2007 (EDT)

== PSA: Blonds ==

Missing from the theories public service announcement: every blond character is related to every other blond character. --{{User:FissionChips/sig}} 17:06, 26 October 2007 (EDT)

== hmm ==


== [[Intuitive aptitude]] ==
Check out http://www.thelindermangroup.com which got added to our fan sites listing. Is it just me, or does this look like blatant copyright infringement? ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 10:54, 31 October 2007 (EDT))
* Oh my. I wouldn't expect them to last long.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 10:55, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
* ARIN WhoIs says they are in Amsterdam, NL. I think they are outside copyright enforcement boundaries for the USA.--[[User:MishBaker|Mish]] 13:52, 9 November 2007 (EST)
** I'm not a lawyer, but they're probably still running afoul of some copyright law enforcable over there. Regardless of whether it's legal over there or not, it would certainly be illegal here in the US so to be safe their links were deleted from our fan sites listing. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 13:56, 9 November 2007 (EST))
** The Netherlands is indeed a party to both the Berne Convention and WIPO. While the U.S. is in non-compliance with the Berne Convention on several issues (notably copyright term), there is indeed copyright reciprocity between the U.S. and the Netherlands.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 14:29, 9 November 2007 (EST)

**The server crashed and I single-handedly recreated the entire site... :) Nothing major, just a few fun graphic novels. Evolutions has been quite slow lately. Glad to see you back. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:54, 7 February 2008 (EST)
* No problem! Thanks for all the hard work on the character histories. A lot of us seem to be getting caught up in discussions and not paying much attention to the checklists, myself very much included.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 00:31, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
*** Please... as if I don't keep backups. :) As for the intuitive aptitude, that's really neat. I find it amusing when I see people call it that even on Wikipedia when I believe it was a term Hardvice coined right here. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 20:49, 7 February 2008 (EST))

== [[:Category:Characters]] autocat ==
== Theory ==


Why was the autocategorization for [[:Category:Characters]] [http://heroeswiki.com/index.php?title=Template%3ACharacter_box&diff=160568&oldid=158029 removed]? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:18, 7 May 2008 (EDT)
Although I didn't put that note in there myself, "this has nothing to do with this theory" (assuming I'm looking at the right note in the history) is very relevant. Mr. and Mrs. Petrelli were founding members - what's the likelyness that their sons alter-ego was in on it with them? I doubt he was even born at that time.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 00:35, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
* The theory says that Adam is Peter's alter-ego. The author meant like Jessica is Niki's. Adam being a founding member of the Company could, I suppose, be a point against (since the Company was founded 30 years ago and Peter is only 28), but it doesn't really speak to the theory at all.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 00:39, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
* I don't recall exactly.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 18:33, 7 May 2008 (EDT)
** So no objection if we restore it? I'd rather have the template autocat all the characters than have some characters have the cat and others not. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:36, 7 May 2008 (EDT)
** It's very much so a point against. They're refering to the alter ego like Jessica to Niki- one in the same person, same body, though not the same mind. If Adam is Peter, Peter wouldn't have been born yet, or just a baby, and would have been a founder, which makes not a lick of sense.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 00:40, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
*** I get it now. Since it was the only evidence and the theory wasn't very well explained, it just seemed totally out of left field. I'll add it back, with a clearer explanation of how it applies.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 00:45, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
*** I'm pretty sure it was doing something undesirable, but I guess we'll find out what if we restore it.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 18:37, 7 May 2008 (EDT)

Hey Hardvice. Would you mind calling upon the awesome gun IDing skills of your partner to tell what kind of [[the Bennets' gun]] is? Thanks! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 02:00, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
Yeah, I copied and pasted it; he had already made the page so there was no template button (and if there was, I didn't see it), so I copied the previous page. I think the page in general is a waste though, unless there is some citation of it's name.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 16:27, 5 November 2007 (EST)
* OK, cool. No problem. I just wanted to make sure we hadn't missed a template or something. :) --[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 16:28, 5 November 2007 (EST)
* I really can't tell from the pictures we have.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 11:42, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
**I'm not an expert in firearms, but there's an image [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c8/Taurus-605-left.jpg] on Wikipedia that closely resembles the Bennet's gun. Here's a black version of it: [http://www.waffen-hanje.de/Hanje-27-10-03/Taurus-605.jpg] [[User:Chrisyu357|Chrisyu357]] 14:04, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
*** I'm not an expert either, but the grip in [[:Image:Noah_grabs_his_gun.jpg|this image]] doesn't match (the Taurus 605 model's grip is not a complete arc like the Bennets' gun). The barrel of the 605 looks too long and it doesn't match the grip of Bennets' gun. I think it's something like the [http://www.meprolightoutlet.com/item/9863_Taurus_Hand_Guns_Pistols__85__Ultra_Light_Re.aspx Taurus 85 Ultra Light], but with a wooden grip. Does that look right, Hardvice? Are there other manufacturers that you know of that have a similar make?--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 17:16, 22 June 2008 (EDT)

== Danke mista! ==
* I fixed [[Portal:Guest Cast/Season Two]], but I left the maintenance tag in case you want to edit it some more. You needed to add a table around the entries, and do one call of Template:gueststarsnavcell per line for it to work properly.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 01:52, 18 September 2008 (EDT)
**Your fix worked, but not in the way I wanted it to. It will fix the pictures, but not the link. I don't know what to fix, so I started down the route of just manually making templates. However, if there's a way to have the link for the second page of season 2 to link to Portal:Guest Cast 2/Season Two or if the season was one, Portal:Guest Cast 2/Season One, then I wouldn't have to manually fix it. The template works like a charm with the season aspect, but it doesn't change the link. That's the problem, and if that's fixed, that would be a great help.--{{User:Baldbobbo/sig}} 02:29, 18 September 2008 (EDT)
*** Right, for the Season One Guest Stars archive, we made a new template instead of using Template:gueststarsnavcell. That template isn't set up to do the archive links, so making a new template was the way to go.

***<s>Of course, not very many browsers support the :hover pseudoclass, so that one has limited usefulness.

**** I've never been a big fan of using that forum approach on a wiki. Blacking out sections of spoiler text on articles doesn't really feel appropriate here which is why we have separate spoiler articles in the first place. In the case of complete episode spoilers like on [[Spoiler talk:Powerless]] I like the hidden table approach that was taken; it looks much cleaner than having blacked out text. I haven't read the spoilers yet, but I'm assuming they're complete spoilers of the episode. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 08:32, 10 November 2007 (EST))
***** I was thinking of this as more of an option for talk pages, where people might want to reply to a question with spoiler info, like this: {{spoilertext|Rosebud is a sled!}}--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 13:15, 10 November 2007 (EST)
*****I agree with admin, think it detracts from the page. Cool idea though. It would look like the page was redacted by the FBI or something.--[[User:MishBaker|Mish]] 13:57, 10 November 2007 (EST)
******I was thinking more of use in talk pages than on spoiler articles themselves. I just used it on [[Episode talk:Out of Time]] to answer a question whose answer was spoilery. That's what I had in mind.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 14:01, 10 November 2007 (EST)
******* Spoilery answers shouldn't be on non spoiler talk pages though. Whenever I've had to answer a question on a regular talk page based on a spoiler I don't provide spoiler details. Plus I'm using a browser right now that shows the text even when it's hidden. So I would have seen that "Rosebud is his sled" spoiler without even doing anything. The best and safest way to address a spoilery question on a regular talk page is to either not include details or to provide a link to the spoiler article so they know what they're getting into.

I was reading your userpage and I couldn't stop laughing at your theories. I really understand what you mean. Also love your skeptisism, Kinesokinesialkinesis and Autodefenestrokinesis but you forgot to add Claire to it as all she seems to do is throw herself out of windows :) --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 11:28, 14 February 2009 (EST)
For some reason, whenever I want to do a test page, rather than "[[User:Hardvice#MediaWiki:Newarticletext|foo]]", I always use "Oswald". I chalk that up to my lack of experience in computer language prior to Heroes Wiki. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:52, 11 November 2007 (EST)

Matt feedback loop file

My computer (and probably a few others') do not support .ogg format. Would you mind reuploading File:Powers peter matt.ogg. Shoyru1177 18:51, 21 June 2008 (EDT)

  • Unfortunately, .OGG is the only audio format supported by MediaWiki for uploads by default, in part because it's free and open source. Codecs like MP3 are actually proprietary and licensed and thus cost money.--Hardvice (talk) 11:42, 22 June 2008 (EDT)

Intuitive aptitude

I guess NBC liked your suggestion. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 17:50, 7 February 2008 (EST)

  • Looks like it! BTW, I should be back full-time on Monday (project is wrapping up) -- anything major I've missed in the last two weeks?--Hardvice (talk) 17:51, 7 February 2008 (EST)
    • The server crashed and I single-handedly recreated the entire site... :) Nothing major, just a few fun graphic novels. Evolutions has been quite slow lately. Glad to see you back. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 17:54, 7 February 2008 (EST)
      • Please... as if I don't keep backups. :) As for the intuitive aptitude, that's really neat. I find it amusing when I see people call it that even on Wikipedia when I believe it was a term Hardvice coined right here. (Admin 20:49, 7 February 2008 (EST))

Category:Characters autocat

Why was the autocategorization for Category:Characters removed? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 18:18, 7 May 2008 (EDT)

  • I don't recall exactly.--Hardvice (talk) 18:33, 7 May 2008 (EDT)
    • So no objection if we restore it? I'd rather have the template autocat all the characters than have some characters have the cat and others not. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 18:36, 7 May 2008 (EDT)
      • I'm pretty sure it was doing something undesirable, but I guess we'll find out what if we restore it.--Hardvice (talk) 18:37, 7 May 2008 (EDT)

Account Removal

Do you think you could remove my account and the associated user and user talk pages, then remove this? --Sgtbenc 20:17, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

Lostpedia Family Tree Help

Lostpedia are trying to do a Family Tree thing like the ones here. I don't know if you watch LOST, but I heard you could make the trees. Help would be appreciated! You don't have to. Thanks DECBOY23 13:44, 14 May 2008 (EDT)DECBOY23

Gun identification

Hey Hardvice. Would you mind calling upon the awesome gun IDing skills of your partner to tell what kind of the Bennets' gun is? Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:00, 1 June 2008 (EDT)

  • I really can't tell from the pictures we have.--Hardvice (talk) 11:42, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
    • I'm not an expert in firearms, but there's an image [1] on Wikipedia that closely resembles the Bennet's gun. Here's a black version of it: [2] Chrisyu357 14:04, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
      • I'm not an expert either, but the grip in this image doesn't match (the Taurus 605 model's grip is not a complete arc like the Bennets' gun). The barrel of the 605 looks too long and it doesn't match the grip of Bennets' gun. I think it's something like the Taurus 85 Ultra Light, but with a wooden grip. Does that look right, Hardvice? Are there other manufacturers that you know of that have a similar make?--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:16, 22 June 2008 (EDT)

Help with a useful template you made

Hey, I have a problem with Portal:Guest Cast/Season Two. I used Template:gueststarsnavcell, but I can't get the random pipes to go away. Any suggestions??? Thanks.--Bob (talk) 00:08, 18 September 2008 (EDT)

  • I fixed Portal:Guest Cast/Season Two, but I left the maintenance tag in case you want to edit it some more. You needed to add a table around the entries, and do one call of Template:gueststarsnavcell per line for it to work properly.--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:52, 18 September 2008 (EDT)
    • Your fix worked, but not in the way I wanted it to. It will fix the pictures, but not the link. I don't know what to fix, so I started down the route of just manually making templates. However, if there's a way to have the link for the second page of season 2 to link to Portal:Guest Cast 2/Season Two or if the season was one, Portal:Guest Cast 2/Season One, then I wouldn't have to manually fix it. The template works like a charm with the season aspect, but it doesn't change the link. That's the problem, and if that's fixed, that would be a great help.--Bob (talk) 02:29, 18 September 2008 (EDT)
      • Right, for the Season One Guest Stars archive, we made a new template instead of using Template:gueststarsnavcell. That template isn't set up to do the archive links, so making a new template was the way to go. I'll look at making a new template so we can consider whether or not to swap out the manual ones.--MiamiVolts (talk) 11:11, 18 September 2008 (EDT)

Talk:Portal:Future Characters

Can you come contribute to this discussion Talk:Portal:Future Characters when you get a free minute...trying to avoid a potential snowballing problem with all the new stuff being added. Thanks --HiroDynoSlayer (talk) 09/23/2008 12:57 (EST)

Just had to say...

I was reading your userpage and I couldn't stop laughing at your theories. I really understand what you mean. Also love your skeptisism, Kinesokinesialkinesis and Autodefenestrokinesis but you forgot to add Claire to it as all she seems to do is throw herself out of windows :) --IronyUTC CH 11:28, 14 February 2009 (EST)
