Howling:Colonel Jefferson

sonar When Canton steps back out of the "prison", the soldier insists that he talk with Colonel Jefferson. Then Doctor Shepard also says he need to talk with Colonel Jefferson. So who is Colonel Jefferson.

Also, on a tangent, then President Nixon walks out of the prison to silence the first insistance on talking to the Colonel, he says I'm President Nixon, this strikes me as bad writing. I would expect better of the Doctor Who writers. So the question is why reference a this Colonel or make the President seem so foreign or awkward (even for Nixon)? To quote Chekhov,"One must not put a loaded rifle on the stage if no one is thinking of firing it."170.140.105.1 23:32, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Logically, Colonel Jefferson is the installation commander at Area 51. Raven&#39;s wing 23:35, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Colonel Jefferoson was obviously just supposed to be the commander at Area 51. There wasn't really any mystery at all there. How is Nixon introducing bad writing? It was obviously sort of a weird moment, since the soldiers had no clue how the President of the United States ended up inside of there prison, which may account for Nixon being a bit awkward, but nothing seemed odd about either the Colonel or Nixon's introduction to me.Icecreamdif 00:05, May 3, 2011 (UTC)
