Last night when I was writing my initial thoughts about SGA 2x17...I mentioned needing to find out who wrote the episode, but when I was writing it my first instinct said Martin Gero wrote the episode (I just didn't post it because I was afraid I'd be wrong, again should have trusted my instincts on this one) I think Martin Gero is the best writer they have on staff. He has certainly written all my favorite episodes.
