				| Ok so I'm catching up with the podcasts.... yes, in many ways CSI is Sci Fi, moreso the Miami and NY ones with their super touch screen computers... Also bones with their Holosuite..... |

Cute.     (And I like their site design!)
 
 
I don't usually watch the CSIs either (I've seen maybe two complete episodes and bits of others), so I don't have too much to say on the topic - but here's an article I just found on the topic of CSI and Bones being science fiction. _________________

				I wouldn't like to think that anything that's outlandish or bad science means it's science fiction. But yes, CSI is bad science.
 
 
I particularly like the blue neon lighting everywhere, as if they're working in a disco from Miami Vice. _________________ Jim Francis

I should hope not.  There doesn't seem to be much "stayin' alive" going on. |

				My favorite Sci-Fi tech in CSI is when they "enhance" security camera footage. _________________ Professor Saltine's Astrodynamic Dirigible.
