Hmm... that's something to definatly look into.. but I'm not a bio-major so I'm a little in the dark about the anatomy references Sad

Note to the operators, you MAY want to start a new thread, separate out the Hive-Ku Discussion & Coordination into 2 threads, or this one is just gonna get unwieldy really fast. If you do this - please move this post into the discussion thread. Thanks

Oh yeh, it could get quite ugly if there aren't two seperate threads

Since Red_Blue deals with nerves, I'm going to guess that trigeminal does also.
I'm also going to speculate that Kamahl is explaining how CP is integrated into the brain.

I'm betting they are trying to get us to make friends because it will make us want to play together on Xbox Live.
I don't know if you have read up on Halo2 on Live, but it's going to be cool.
Clans, IM's using MSN messenger, linking usernames and getting stats!
Fun stuff!

for what it's worth, I believe that the trigeminal nerve is also responsible for 'brain freeze' when you eat ice cream too fast

Wild speck since its so early and I haven't heared the clip. It occours to me speaking over the chatter net into an ear piece would be a great way to cheat on a test. Dunno

Kamal, being a medical geek like crfets, probably studied the nerves early in his career.

I remember there's an anagram for remembering all the nerve systems in the human body, that starts off "Oh Oh Oh". It's naughty.

I don't know why he'd be shouting them during a police raid, unless it's a code phrase. To his friend on the chatternet?

Trigeminal can also mean, when reading an EKG Trigeminy is having three regular heart beats complete with P waves and a QRS complex, before having what is called a PVC, or a premature ventricular contraction. What it generally looks like is three normal blips on the heart monitor, than a sudden irregular blip nearly immediately afterwards a bit off kilter from the rest, being a bio major and primarily a med student this might be what he is explaining. If he is using it in the context of soundwaves he might be speaking of soundwaves looking like a Trigeminal heart rhythm, which could be an accurate analogy.
