The title text is not saying that a tachyonic antitelephone will be the *achievement* of all time - it is saying that the term 'tachyonic antitelephone' is the greatest *term* of all time. 141.101.104.37 17:15, 27 June 2016 (UTC)Jesper

I'd say it's more ominous than that. The invention of the tachyonic antitelephone causes a total collapse in human society, ending all forward progress in the sciences. And thus, the term "tachyonic antitelephone" is never surpassed, because it heralds the end of humanity. 108.162.216.102 17:22, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

I feel that it is worth mentioning that there was a Star Trek episode in which Captain Picard was warping between three points in time and aimed three tachyon beams at the same point, creating an antitime thingy that ended all life. 108.162.221.92 18:38, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

New character category

A blonde news presenter like this one has been used several times before like in 1600: MarketWatch, 495: Secretary: Part 2, [[932: CIA] and 618: Asteroid. And blonde woman with fairly long hair that is clearly neither Megan nor Ponytail has been seen often, like in 752: Phobia and 1645: Toasts. Would it be relevant to have either a new character called Blonde news reporter, or more general Blondie for both those with news and the other. Or maybe instead one for news reporter as there are also several other news reporters that are not this blonde woman like 957: Development, 756: Public Opinion, 1295: New Study and 1391: Darkness. There could be a category called News reporters or similar? --Kynde (talk) 20:57, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
