Well said -- I would do the same.

Very much agreed. I don't really like the new series TARDIS interior. I also don't like the idea the new series has brought about that TARDISes are grown instead of being built. That's entirely untrue. I loved the idea that the TARDIS was an incredibly sophisticated machine that often had a mind of its own, but it was just a highly evolved machine created by a race of technological geniuses. There is no organic component within the TARDIS beyond simply being so exceptionally built that it has cultivated a sort of intelligence of its own.

Sounds good to me.

Me too. I feel like a lot of people I know could do with a kind of break like that.

Hahaha, me too.
