Thank you, thank you, Your Name. When 'MummyChuck' mentioned that this 
was a reboot of the 2004 series, I was thinking .... "Hang on. Wasn't 
the 2004 series a re-boot of the original 'BSG'?? 1980's series, maybe.

So, O.K., they'll stuff things up still further ..... but, at least 
it'll be SF ..... Hopefully some decent SF at that.
