Considering how cylons function, you'd think a few slices of bread and a toaster would suffice. No need for error prone mechanical alterations and all that.

BTW, is anybody else getting audio from that dang Dish Network banner ad? That is so rude.

Believe me, I have complained very loudly to the powers-that-be about ads with sound that autoplay.
