Admit it Pen, your having the time of you life! And...I'm enjoying it!
- - - drum drum.
Not in a sense anyone can understand
Ye gad Tom! How is it possible for a living thing to be out there in the vacuum of space?
It’s easy Barns, you just breathe through your nose.
I’m afraid it isn’t alive Dr. Bawkoy. It gives off energy, has a sense of awareness and reacts to the environment surrounding it, but it is not alive, at least not in the way you and I understand life.
That’s the way I understand life.
Yeah Spork, what the heck?
I fear it may all be too complex for illogical minds to comprehend.
Illogical, right. Say Spork, let’s have a question and answer session. I’ll name some objects and you just answer alive or not alive…
A chicken?
Why, alive.
A goldfish?
Not alive, at least not in the way that…
...that you and I understand life, right. And what about your vintage James T. Kirk action figure?
Alive, of course! Honestly Doctor, if you’re going to ask patently obvious questions, I don’t see the point of this exercise.

Captain’s log: star date hand, hand, fingers, thumb - the ship has been waylaid by a large sentient hand. Though it has yet to show any aggression, you know what they say about idle hands…
LOL, great stuff!
