WC 1 Question

Guys, guys, c'mon! Think about it... without the chalkboard, no warcry for the Maniac! Given the timezone I really wonder if any one of the crew ever saw a crayon before in his or her life, or maybe in the museum... let alone know how and why to use it.
Now at least we can enjoy Maniac bloating "Chalk up another for the Maniac!" in the episodes following.

May LOAF correct me if I'm wrong!

"obsolute" = Can I assume that this is a hybrid word, combining "absolute" with "obsolete", meaning "absolutely obsolete"?...

Very clever!;)

Mekt, it's called WC1/2/3. ;)
 
We have high tech computer screens *now*, but there are still chalkboards. Why would this be different in 600 years?
 
In the future, maybe you shouldn't be there! :p

how about a simple shortage of the raw materials needed to create them? 600 more years of tennis, soccer, baseball and football should make a real dent in our chalk reserves! LOL

I ain't pickin' on him; I just find that word's spelling to be ingeniously amusing (whether that was his intention or not, who knows);)
 
Not to mention that someone might want to 'improve' his or her performance. :) Human error can stuff things up too. It shouldn't be too hard for a monitor to be linked to the database which keeps record of the flight recorder disks.
 
I should think the ease of use and complete dependability of a chalk board or dry-erase board would be exceedingly preferable to a computerized method which will invariably cost more and can wear down, crash, or be destroyed by enemy fire.

If they work fine now, there's no reason they shouldn't in the future, and there's absolutely no call to replace them ever with some radical 'hi tech' solution so much more prone to the entropy of combat.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Otherwise you wind up with a lot of New Coke and Mustang IIs.

Wow, Chalk Boards can't be destroyed?! Why don't we impliment them in our military if they're so indestructable. :D
