The Techno-babble....


All that stuff coming over the speakers in Wildfire.

Example: "Adjust S.Y. system for aspectricity as follows:Point 2A at 5. Point 9 through 12 at plus 1. Plus 3 plus 6 At minus."

Does anyone know if it's just gibberish for the film or is it real?

I think I'm going to start trying to work, "Check SY system for aspectricity" into everyday conversation. Like if someone's working on a car (or, better still, a computer), ask them, "Hey, did you check the SY system for aspectricity? No? Damn, you've got to check the SY system for aspectricity...".

I've no clue. But I was amused how such things were spread over the speakers for everyone to hear while no-one cared. Totally useless.

In the documentary accompanying the DVD I watched the screenwriter says he just made it up.
