re: The Colony

I agree, most of the people on the show wouldnt be alive if they tried to survive on their own. I thought the machinist would be able to come up with some better ideas than the washing machine, at least he'll fight if he has to. The old hippie mad scientist, at least that's how I think of him, is learning what it's like to be on the opposite side of pacifism. I also think its scripted but I like seeing some of the mechanical ideas and thinking, "Damn, I wonder if I wouldve thought of that?"
