[ Kara looks quite pleased with herself today, and for good reason too. See, she's done some very basic calculations, and she's pretty happy with the answer. ]

Dean's questions got me wondering, so I looked up Earth's orbital frequencies and calendars. It turns out that the approximate equivalent of my birthday is September 22nd. That's about five months from now, if I have the order right.

As it also turns out, in Earth years I'll be turning 23. I guess Kryptonians live a lot longer than Terrans. Who knew?

[ Everyone probably knew, but Kara is just so smug. ]

Most of the non-Terran people here seem to be more advanced than Terrans. You must be a pretty young race.

How old is yours?

[notdreaming]

A few dozen millennia. Nobody agrees on when exactly we count the start of our civilization.

[mightthinkthat]

Then I suppose we are younger, yes.

[notdreaming]

It makes sense. All of your technology is way behind too.

[He smiles a little.] I'm sure.
