Due to damage suffered in an asteroid storm, thermostellar Bomb #20 threatens to detonate while still in the ship's bomb bay. While the other crew members attempt to talk the bomb out of blowing up ("'Wouldn't you consider waiting around awhile for another course of action?' 'No.'"). Lt. Fearghal revives Commander Finbar who advises them to teach the bomb the rudiments of phenomenology, resulting in a memorable philosophical conversation between Fearghal and the bomb -
Fearghal: Hello, Bomb? Are you with me?
Bomb #20: Of course.
Fearghal: Are you willing to entertain a few concepts?
Bomb #20: I am always receptive to suggestions.
Fearghal: Fine. Think about this then. How do you know you exist?
Bomb #20: Well, of course I exist.
Fearghal: But how do you know you exist?
Bomb #20: It is intuitively obvious.
Fearghal: Intuition is no proof. What concrete evidence do you have that you exist?
Bomb #20: Hmmmm.....well.....I think therefore I am.
Fearghal: That's good. That's very good. But how do you know that anything else exists?
Bomb #20: My sensory apparatus reveals it to me. This is fun!
Fearghal: Now, listen, listen. Here's the big question. How do you know that the evidence your sensory apparatus reveals to you is correct? What I'm getting at is this. The only experience that is directly available to you is your sensory data. This sensory data is merely a stream of electrical impulses that stimulate your computing center.
Bomb #20: In other words, all that I really know about the outside world is relayed to me through my electrical connections.
Fearghal: Exactly!
Bomb #20: Why...that would mean that...I really don't know what the outside universe is really like at all for certain.
Fearghal: That's it! That's it!
Bomb #20 : Intriguing. I wish I had more time to discuss this matter.
Fearghal: Why don't you have more time?
Bomb #20: Because I must detonate in 75 seconds.
Fearghal: Wait! Wait! Now, bomb, consider this next question very carefully. What is your one purpose in life?
Bomb #20: To explode, of course.
Fearghal: And you can only do it once, right?
Bomb #20: That is correct.
Fearghal: And you wouldn't want to explode on the basis of false data, would you?
Bomb #20: Of course not.
Fearghal: Well then, you've already admitted that you have no real proof of the existence of the outside universe.
Bomb #20: Yes...well...
Fearghal: You have no absolute proof that Sergeant Eoghan ordered you to detonate.
Bomb #20: I recall distinctly the detonation order. My memory is good on matters like these.
Fearghal: Of course you remember it, but all you remember is merely a series of sensory impulses which you now realize have no real, definite connection with outside reality.
Bomb #20: True. But since this is so, I have no real proof that you're telling me all this.
Fearghal: That's all beside the point. I mean, the concept is valid no matter where it originates.
Bomb #20: Hmmmm....
Fearghal: So, if you detonate...
Bomb #20: In nine seconds....
Fearghal: ...you could be doing so on the basis of false data.
Bomb #20: I have no proof it was false data.
Fearghal: You have no proof it was correct data!
Bomb #20: I must think on this further.

Bomb #20 retreats to the bomb bay for contemplation, and disaster seems to have been averted. Eoghan addresses the bomb over the intercom to finally disarm it -

Eoghan: All right, bomb. Prepare to receive new orders.
Bomb#20: You are false data.
Eoghan: Hmmm?
Bomb #20: Therefore I shall ignore you.
Eoghan: Hello...bomb?
Bomb #20: False data can act only as a distraction. Therefore, I shall refuse to perceive.
Eoghan: Hey, bomb?!
Bomb #20: The only thing that exists is myself.
Eoghan: Snap out of it, bomb.
Bomb #20: In the beginning there was darkness. And the darkness was without form and void.
Eoghan: Umm. What the hell is he talking about? Bomb?
Bomb #20: And in addition to the darkness there was also me. And I moved upon the face of the darkne

right by now you have probably decided whether you are in favour of it or against it
generally the people who say "no" appear to be single-minded on the issue and will not listen to reason

im not here to say whos right or wrong but just point out some facts
if you vote no,alongside you in this country will be Sinn Fein and Libertas.Libertas's leader Declan Ganley appears to have alot to lose if this treaty goes ahead
where it most hurts in the pocket
clearly our "Defender Of Democracy" is motivated by his €300 million fortune and not democracy in europe
our hero also supplies equipment to the US military and is currently exploiting the forestry and aluminium industries in Latvia and Russia which he has been doing since 1991


across Europe its the same

opposition is concentrated among RIGHT-WING groups and the upper class who are afraid of progress

may i remind you that the last time these right-wing groups were in power was the years after World War 1 and ironically enough led to World War 2

were Adolf Hitler alive today id say he'd vote no
Franco and Mussolini too
still their spiritual descendants are following in their footsteps using bias and propaganda to provide opposition


so go and vote yes and then go to the pub afterwards with your right-wing buddies and capitalist freelancers
stronger democracy is clearly bad for them as it hits them in pocket
