    All the air nomads are dead. And how would Gyatso have escaped? He lived in the temple, and probably would have tried to stay and protect the children. Don't be sellin' Gyatso short, he tried to protect the temple and looks like he took out quite a few firebenders with him.

    Aang saw him along with all the other dead air people in The Guru. If Gyatso were alive, why would he be grouped with all the other dead people?

    Tiger tank is better.

    There are people with all kinds of skin tones throughout the show.

    i have not so much a question as it is a statement.

    in 314, y did aang and zuko get trapped in tht goop so easily? aang could have easily made a rock wall over the stuff or frozen it or created a hole in the ceiling to escape from. tht seems to b the only part in the whole episode i dont like.

    it took them by surprise.
