For a 22nd century historian, what better sources could there be than the recently published letters and journals of Dr. Daniel Jackson? Word Count: about 2200 Characters: Daniel, mentions of just about everyone else Era: Classic team, S. 1-7 Categories: character study (kind of); outsider point-of-view Excerpt: Excerpt: Interestingly, this is also not Dr. Jackson’s only mention of tissue or tissues; he uses the imagery of "a box of Kleenex" over and over again. The meaning of this symbol is tantalizingly unclear, though many academics have concluded that Jackson’s research was underwritten by a major 20th century corporation, perhaps Kimberly-Clark or Proctor&Gamble.
