Correction: No, he's right - 2cm x 2cm (for example) would be 4 sq cm. 2m x 2m (200cm x 200cm) would be 40,000 sq cm - off by a factor of 10,000.

Correction: He says "Hey, sorry," while panting - he's apologising for taking so long to answer the door.

Correction: The symbol is there the entire time. It's just very difficult to see.

Greg Dwyer

Correction: Just because she knows people who got married in Vegas doesn't mean she didn't know the weddings were real.

Correction: It would easy for Sheldon to ignore this fact when he is aboard a train that has been restored to its original design; internally and externally. He has been building toy models since he was a kid. He just wanted to know to what level this train has been restored.

Except the cars are 1915 Pullmans coaches and the locomotive is an Alcoa FA-4 (built from 1946-1959), so Sheldon should know they never would have had a "link-and-pin" coupler.

The Countdown Reflection - S5-E24

Factual error: There is not a snowball's chance of Howard becoming an astronaut. He suffers from cardiac arrhythmia, something about which he is completely open. "Transient" or not this is easily detectable by a simple electrocardiogram, which is a fundamental part of the many medical examinations a potential astronaut will have to pass. He wouldn't even be allowed to start basic training. Note also that during his basic training he shows signs of severe stress and trauma which would inevitably trigger a cardiac episode. Even if it didn't the fact that he was falling apart at the seams would have him removed from the programme for his own good.

Show generally

Question: How come Raj has no problem speaking to his mother, but, when around other women, such as Penny, he immediately stops talking? Also, why does he have to whisper in someone's ear if he wants to ask Penny something?

Answer: Because Raj's selective mutism seems to be caused by women that Raj sees (on some sort of conscious or subconscious level) as a potential sexual partner. An attribute that wouldn't apply to either his sister or mother.
