Production/trivia

I'm sure the title of this episode (Up the Long Ladder) is possibly a reference to something else, but for the life of me I can't remember what it is. Astronaut (talk) 16:34, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We'd need a source for it, but I'd expect the reference was to the DNA helix, with its ladder-like form, given the episode's genetics-themed plot and the fact that the Mariposa residents are all cloned from a long-ago set of colonists (i.e., up the long ladder of the DNA back to the early colonists).

Vandalism

This page seems to be subject to frequent malicious revisions. I've deleted the most recent additions, but the fix is likely to be temporary. 66.80.65.244 (talk) 18:58, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I left one comment here on the episode's racism and obnoxious 19th-century Irish stereotypes, and that was deleted. Hardly "frequent", "malicious", or "vandalism." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.14.87.76 (talk) 16:01, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
