How is that possible?

[Darkside]

So I was re-watching Big-O yesterday and in the first episode "Roger the Negotiator" Roger says that "40 years ago an event happened that erased everyones memories." Then that captain of the police squad comes over to Rogers place and looks at the picture on Rogers mantel, saying "Who knows if these are even your memories"

Doesnt this imply that Roger was alive when the event occured...so that would make him over 40 years old?????

How is that possible?

To get the board going again ....

Well we do now that Roger was alive when the event occured in Episode 13. As for the age thing, Roger was very young when those experiments took place so it wouldn't surprise me if one of the effects was a slow aging process. Remember, we still don't know a lot about Roger himself.

Or Paradime City for that matter.

A city contained in a dome.... Robots, some autonomous, some respond to voice/mind control..... Hmmmm....... I have a theory as to what happened, but I'll wait until the first year completes to reveal it. If this is what I think it is, I a chapter in the Bible tells this story.

Also keep in mind that the final episode is a possible loop back to the first episode. There seems to be some sort of time loop or repeated history thing going on. One theory at any rate.
