I've been messing around (mostly inside my own mind) with the idea of a human exodus from earth-that-was, and have figured why it is that River is telepathic...i think. Whenever a population looses a vast amount of its genepool (say, when a boatload of peoples arrive on a new island and create a new civilisation), its called a population bottleneck. Its the same thing with the amish people, as they rarely have children with people outside of the amish community, meaning a smaller gene pool. This means that minor genetic fluctuations from person to person are becoming amplified. This is just science; the way that certain genetic conditions are of higher prevelance in isolated communities. If telepathy, or telepathic traits were-at some level-genetic (as opposed to chemical or enviromental), and assuming that not the entire population of earth-that-was travelled to the system for whatever reason, then its is possible that a population bottleneck has occoured, increasing the genetic likelihood of telepathy. That may lead on to a story i write in the future, regarding the denial that some (many) were left behind on earth-that-was, which may explain why Earth is discussed in almost mythical terms, and why so little remnants of the past exist

I was asked about my future trip to China, which I would love to talk about, by somebody in some thread, somewhere, but I totally forget where and that's no good to anybody. I think I'll worry about that later. Anyway, I'm just looking for Winston-Salem, NC Browncoats. I want to maybe get together and watch Firefly or Serenity and talk about the best dang series in the 'verse. I hear a lot of people talking about NC stuff on here, but I don't feel like driving all the way to Raleigh just to get my fix. Sooooo, any Browncoats in Winston or Charlotte for that matter, hit me up on here, and maybe we can work something out.
