ITA! I've always wondered about the base commander having to give the command to open the iris even when the IDC's been sent. I mean, Hammond (and now Jack) could never get anything else done with having to be in the control room all the time!
Yes! Surely the commanding officer can't be there *every* time a team comes through. Scheduling just wouldn't allow for it. Perhaps it's only for an unscheduled off-world activation, but even then, geez. Not always time for them to go get the general.
Y'know, we've been discussing Gate/Puddle-Jumper OTP on sheppard_n_weir over at YahooGroups. It's sort of scarily graphic, if you have a good imagination. Oh, and also how SG-1 are sperm, because...um...yeah. Shutting up now.
*sporfle!* Omg, that's hysterical. I can certainly follow the analogy...hee. What a lovely visual...
