Let the word go forth that Captain Burch has the official nickname of "Captain Botch." So say we all. What a doofus. Spencerian 11:12, 22 Aug 2005 (EDT)

Catman?
I seriously think someone misheard a character saying "Captain". And he's not a Captain, he's a Lieutenant that got briefly promoted to Captain to temporarily be CAG. --Ricimer, 19 Sept, 2005
- It's on scifi.com, I swear to god. I know it sounds ridiculous. --Peter Farago 15:44, 16 September 2005 (EDT)
Interim?
Interim suggests that he was a temporary CAG assigned with the purpose of finding a more definite CAG. Adama meant for Birch to be the new CAG. Also, he was replaced by the same CAG from before, which I would say is another reason that the term "interim" could be improved upon. Rocky8311 19:05, October 19, 2005 (EDT)
- Okay. So. Your Manager at work goes on vacation to Italy for a while. Long enough that the Higher Ups don't just gloss over it and make everyone cover for him. They actually promote someone on a temporary basis. What do you call the new guy? I'd call him the Interim Manager or the Temporary Manager. I know you're arguing intent, but--well, I don't know that it's that big of a deal. --Day 16:14, 20 October 2005 (EDT)
- Yeah, but Lee wasn't on vacation. At the time Adama didn't expect him to be coming back. --Redwall 22:59, 20 October 2005 (EDT)
- Yes. As I said, the argument is that intent (on Cmdr. Adama's part) matters. My assertion is that it doesn't, really. The result of various characters' actions was that Birch was the CAG for only a short time: the interim that Cpt. Adama was AWOL. --Day 00:38, 21 October 2005 (EDT)
