Things were thrown askew by the surprise and welcome interjection of James Bodi into the mix, still more by the appearance of a friend from Queen's. Later, in a sort of annex to the main meeting, after enjoyable visits to Glad Day and This Ain't the Rosedale Library, we returned to the Yonge-Wellesley Starbucks and discussed, among other things, the possibilities of Calcutta remaining capital of the Raj.
- The James Bond series of films qualifies as marginal science-fiction.

schizmatic lamented that, of late, the films have tended to lose all subtelty, presenting blatantly obvious villains. I had to agree. On the other hand, I think that Judi Dench is fun as M. - Foreknowledge of the future, particularly if the future is locked relative to our position in the present, wouldn't be fun.
- We agreed that Battlestar Galactica is rather impressive.
- It's annoying when characters are brought onto television shows with the express intent of increasing sex appeal, for instance, buxom blonde women who announce that on their planet everyone goes topless.
