But remember OIS, when it's Simon's b-day, and they know that that day was his b-day because of of something on Simon. Sure, I don't think there was anything on River, but Simon's warrent or whatever it's called was avalible to the general public if the crew on Serenity got it.
I'm not arguing the main point- I'm just throwing this in here. I do agree with the peeps saying that Badger was too stupid to reconize them, and wouldn't be paying attention to them because he wouldn't want to get involved in Alliance stuff.

And you are right to point it out! :) I had forgotten all about it. In OoG, Mal indeed says:
"Seems a fresh warrant for your arrest come up on the cortex. Had your birth date attached right to it."
And, come to think of it, Harken said:
"Alliance property, too. You could lose your ship, Captain. But that's a wrist slap compared to the penalty for harboring fugitives. A brother and sister. When I search this vessel, I won't find them, will I?"
It is, of course, not all that bewildering that Commander Harken knows about the two, but, by pointing out a penalty, he DOES seem to indicate that Mal ought to know they are fugitives, too (through public channels).
As for that cortex thingy, in our world, arrest warrants aren't posted on the Internet, so it's entirely possible Wash/Mal (or Book even?) hacked into a not-so-private part of the cortex. Nothing fancy, really, but just like listening to the police band or some such.
Of course, I remain steadfast in my belief that the details about Simon and River have been kept absolutely classified, and are only accessible to the highest military ranks. But for now we're looking at some fair compelling evidence says at least the warrant for Simon's arrest probably was in the public channels, or at least in the semi-public channels. And that River may be listed as a fugitive as well.
I'll have to do some more thinking about this, RiverFlan. :) Thanks again for bringing your observations to light.

I thought it was "Titan Colony". That's what the subtitles say, anyway.

I'm pretty sure it was "dayton" cuz you have to factor in the cauchney (sp?) accent they kinda pronounce their 'a's like 'i's. And if you look at the script it says dayton colony :-P could be they copied it down wrong, but I'm pretty sure i heard it right. :\

Dayton Colony, for certain. :) Or sometimes spelled "Dyton".

Badger was from Dyton (die-ten) colonies. Not surprising the subtitles say different - they are routinely wrong.
Can't recall exactly where it is stated that Dyton is were Badger was from, but the Unified planets are shown on page 12 of the Serenity Offical Companion, and Dyton is there.

River says it:
"Don't seem likely I'd tell 'em to you, do it? Anyone off Dayton Colony know's better'n to talk to strangers."

Where does Dayton spelling come from?
The scripts I've seen spell it Dyton:
http://firefly.girven.org/scripts/firefly-106.htm
When hearing "Die-ten" the CCP transcribes it as Titan, just like they make many other mistakes and omissions.
