Addendum to Canon vs. Fanon, part 14: How old is Sam, really?

[fignewton]

There was considerable discussion in the comments section of the Sam Carter edition regarding Sam's actual age. If you're interested in reading the details that lead to the final conclusion (the screencap from Entity doesn't work, but Sam is still younger than Daniel), this link will take you directly to the new analysis.

And thanks, Codger. :)

No, not an easy ride, just that I doubt the AF would have *allowed* someone of her brainpower to be 'wasted' on flight school without someone somewhere saying "C'mon! She can do it and look, she could be an astronaut down the road! Think of the PR!" Not nepotism so much as being willing to argue the point in the right places.

Though I still want to know how she avoided a Board of Inquiry (or whatever it's called in the AF) after First Commandment.
