                Well, going in further in the straight fandom would require a demonstration of knowledge about the wonder twins that no one here is ever going to want to admit.

            If you were talking about twins knowing when the other is in danger then yes but I thought we were talking about the Wonder Twins’ shape-changing powers, those require touching.

              Depends on which incarnation. There have been some writings of them where there was just a proximity problem.

        Even in the Stone Ages when I went to college, there was a student directory that told you where people lived. It was on paper. I imagine that now you’d be able to look it up through an on-campus online system.

          True. And when I went to college the RAs would made nametag things and put them on the dorm doors at the start of the year, so yeah. It’s pretty easy to figure out who’s where.

        I know, it’s just evidence up until now suggested that Billie was a moron who couldn’t be civil if her life depended on it. She must really be on the edge.

          June 9, 2011 at 12:35 am | #

          She started being a little more civil when she was trying to get on the paper. Not exactly tactful, but she was more civil than she had been previously. Though I do agree that she’s on edge.

              What I think dchorror was trying to explain is that Billie has no reason to know about Sal’s affinity for windows. In this universe she hasn’t seen or heard of Sal crashing in through windows yet.

      Dude, I room with my brother and I don’t know how to find him. He disappears and returns at seemingly arbitrary hours. I frequently don’t see him for weeks at a time, though there is often evidence that he came and went while I was sleeping. He’s a moody silent fellow so I’ve never managed to get his cell number out of him. When someone asks me how he’s doing I say “I don’t know.” I’m pretty sure the last time we spoke to eachother with words was around a month ago when I asked if he wanted the last of the leftovers before I took them. He grunted something I took to be a no.

      There really isn’t a magic familial bond that let’s you know this stuff about your relatives when they’re not telling you. If Sal hasn’t felt like sharing her info with Walky then he’s got nothing.

      If she lives in a different city, and the city is sufficiently removed from you, I’m pretty sure you could point straight towards her most of the time. You know where she is, therefore you have twin telepathy. PROVEN WITH SCIENCE!

      Two of my brothers are twins. During high school they could randomly spout out that their twin was in trouble and they would be right about 75% of the time. Not proof of twin telepathy, just proof that they were both in trouble about 75% of the time…

The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,
