Bill Lee quotes from Stargate SG-1

Dr. Lee

Why didn't you just tell him we'd come up with a viable method for cold fusion while you were at it?!

Dr. Lee

I admit it's a pretty sound theory. Pardon the pun. [chuckles] Ultra-sonic waves. [laughs] Uhh, that's good. Anyway...

[pointing to the Ancient device] Is that that thing that made that guy do that thing?

Dr. Jackson

Yeah, it's okay, it's off now.

Col. O'Neill

Good. That's good.

Dr. Lee

Yeah, at least we think it's off. It's not glowing anymore so…

Dr. Jackson

Glowing thing really gives it away, so if it's not glowing anymore it shouldn't be on anymore.

Dr. Lee

[to Daniel] Do you want to hold it?

Dr. Jackson

Nope. [moves away]

(laughs) That's crazy!

Dr. Lee

Well, the good news is, it hasn't eaten anybody yet.

[sarcastically] Well, thank you, Seymour.

Dr. Lee

Gamma radiation seems to work. We're preparing a method of delivering a strong enough level to the entire base all at once. Now, non-essential personnels are gonna have to be evacuated, everyone else's gonna have to wear protective suits. You have to get General O'Neill to sign off on this right away.

You know he hasn't slept in over two days.

Dr. Lee

Yeah, that's why I'm asking you to do it.

Right.

Dr. Lee

Well, I mean, we can input the parameters for different scenarios, but the vast majority of the simulation array comes from the mind of the user. The programming is actually built by interfacing memories from the individual’s consciousness with the chair’s matrix.

Carter, all I heard was "matrix" and I found those films quite confusing.

Dr. Lee

Well, trying to achieve something as specific as isolating one small part of the brain is like...it's like... trying to...do something...that's impossible.

Lt. Colonel Carter

Good analogy.

Lt. Colonel Mitchell

So how does it work, assuming it actually does work?

Dr. Lee

You know, I keep telling myself that one of these days I'm going to do something that gets me a little respect.

Dr. Jackson

We're all waiting for that day, Bill.

Lt. Colonel Mitchell

Well while we're at it, why don't we just assume I can fly?

Dr. Lee

Oh, actually, I have been working on a theory...
