yep, I was downloading, the problem was that the RS links kept being taken down, and I had to download the same piece as much as four times 😬.
finally I used mirrors sites and it was all good.
and then another problem: my connection got caught off for the last day or so and couldn't get online. Now I'm here

loved it too, though there are new mysteries, they will be explained through out the season, not to mention that cliffhangers get resolve in the next episode (given they still follow the same trend they had last season)

I'm interested in what this next episode has to do with Lizards.
dunno: Parasite was "Sylar being (or behaving) like a parasite"
.07% was a fun tittle, had nothing to do with story, but got mention twice.
who knows...

yeah, I knew that 😄
... what I meant to say it's that the tittle isn't as important to the story, compared to what actually happened in the episode. it's a percentage, not even a number, a Smartass response by Linderman to Nathan's question, and then comic relief given by Nathan when Peter asks the same question ( even though Peter wasn't expecting an answer).
Lizard could mean just about anything (you can think of that has something to do with lizards), not an actual "Lizard" 😄
I beg to differ
0.07% its a diminutive "number" for what it actually means.
.07% of what?, someone might ask. of the US population? of the entire world? or just New York
Linderman said it of the top of his head, cuz he had already calculated, and saying it in form of a percentage, it's to take the impact of what it means.
He didn't need to say it, though. Nathan didn't need a number to know what was going to happen was wrong. One Innocent person is enough to make someone at least consider the repercussions of his actions.... even Sylar thought that many people dying (even though he didn't know how "many"😉 was wrong, because it didn't serve him at all.
.07% was actually used by the writers to serve as a joke... and it got used as the tittle as well, because it suits it.
... was I the only one who laugh when Nathan said it to Peter?...
I seriously doubt "Lizards" its called that way because of A lizard... unless of course it turns out Mohinder (Chandra Suresh's Iguana) it's actually a man that can turn into a lizard 🙂 ...
... or maybe Kensei's power it's to turn into a lizard... and he happens to be Mohinder (again, Chandra's Iguana) 😄

my analysis is wrong?
how is it wrong?
what does .07% means then?
what is it necessary for Nathan to know the percentage (not even the exact number) of "acceptable losses" before he realizes it was wrong?
one Innocent person it's not important?, it takes .07% to be important?
even Sylar knew it was wrong, and he never heard the "percentage"
the entire episode could have gone without the number ever being muttered, and it still would have made an impact. Nathan knew (in this episode) the true behind his running for congress, he finally knew the true of this entire scheme, and finally understood what he brother told him, he finally knew it was going to happen, that it wasn't delusions or crazy talk. He finally believed
to Nathan's question, Linderman could have simply say that there will be losses or just acceptable losses for a greater good, no need for the .07%.
Peter asked the question not expecting an answer, Nathan saying it made it funny, but it implies that he was considering the repercussions of his actions, he could just say "a lot" or "not many", or nothing at all, like Peter expected
if you're judging Nathan's decision, or indecision, it' s due to a "minuscule number" (it was not minuscule at all), then you'd be mistaken. It was overwhelming for him to know he's destiny has been decided for him, and in order to achieve it, New York needed to explode (by a Nuclear fallout no less), and many people needed to die. not just a bunch.
and without the number, it still would have been a killer episode, one the best heroes had last season
about "Lizards".... what if it is the name of the Irish thugs Gang?
just saying...
