Contradictions

  • pogees
    • In "The Living Legend, Part II", Lucifer uses the term similar to how "shit" would be utilized; e.g. "They're blowing the pogees out of it."
    • In "Armageddon", pogees is a term for testicles.

Differences

  • centari: equivalent to nearly one minute; one hundred microns
  • centon: equivalent to nearly one hour; one hundred centari
  • micron: equivalent to a fraction of a second; 1/100th of a centari
  • week: defined as "ten days"; which would make 25 weeks in a yahren
  • yahren: while still equivalent to a year, a yahren is 250 days

Notes

  • With the numbers given, there is a disconnect between Earth time and Colonial time. For instance, someone living 100 years (2,500 weeks) in Colonial time would be only be 48 Earth years old.
