Big Finish is offering the CD for $19.75, plus 2.99 shipping within the US.  Their story synopsis:

“I thought there’d be more pain. My patients have always complained of more pain…”

Doctor Carson Beckett finds himself in an uncomfortable situation when he becomes a patient in his own infirmary. After a disastrous mission, Beckett is brought back to Atlantis with a broken leg – and a bad case of amnesia.

But that’s the least of his troubles. Cared for by Doctor Gilbert, Beckett watches as a strange affliction overcomes his friends and colleagues. One by one, members of the Atlantis crew are brought in, unconscious and unresponsive yet with no sign of trauma. What’s causing this peculiar illness? And why doesn’t anyone want to hear what Carson has to say about it?

Stargate Atlantis

  • www.gateworld.com – Massive site with a wealth of information, episode transcripts, and the most active forum I’ve ever seen.
  • www.chevron26.com – Large Stargate SG1/Atlantis resource site with episode guides, quotes, etc.
  • www.stargatecaps.com – Caps from all seasons of Atlantis. Cap size and quality varies wildly from episode to episode depending on who did the capping, but some are very nice high-res screencaps.

The feedback was stunning. So many songs from different artists were suggested – some of them I never heard before. The forum changed into a sharing network and I decided to put the songs on a CD to send it to Paul’s management – for he was the lovely bone of contention.

But this is not just a CD. This is a project of a group of people who would not know each other without the Paul-factor. I see this bunch of girls as a reflection of the Crew of Stargate Atlantis: we all come from different countries, have different cultural and social backgrounds and came together for one mission: to have a blast.
