    Hey sorry if someone already asked this

    but i live in massachusetts and i was wondering if the episode "The boiling rock" 1 or 2 has come out yet, and if anyone knows what episodes are out in massachusetts so far???

    thank you

    Well I'm going to assume that the episodes that came out in Massachusetts are the same ones that have come out in America, namely everything up to Day of Black Sun.

    But Boiling Rock (aswell as Western Air Temple and Firebending Masters) came out on DVD recently, so go out and get it if you want to watch it.

    Well most of the people in Avatar appear to be living in a medieval type setting, but the Fire Nation are centuries ahead of everyone else with a full-blown industrial revolution taking place.

    Water tribes: somewhere in the first few centuries AD
    Earth Kingdom: Middle ages
    Fire Nation: 1800s
    Air Nomads: Timeless, ancient way of life.

    The Earth Kingdom was just before the Middle Ages IMHO. But who knows?

    USA, South America, Canada, Britain, Australia, and many other countries, but I don't know an exact figure. I think the wiki article on Avatar has one.

    The only thing I'm sure of is that it doesn't air in Zimbabwe.

    i have several questions as i am a newb, how can i get one of the display pictures that animate? i want an animation of aangs scary armour in "Sokka's master" and if anyone has one id be very thanful.

    and how do you insert a picture for your signature (underneath your post)?

    you can't use/add pictures until you are a level 3, and you get to be a level 3 by posting alot/reviewing epis/writing blogs etc.
    But level ones can change their Avatar and I think that's what his 1st question was. And the answer is you need some photo editor I would assume.

    I don't see how she would (lol) be able to. Wood isn't made of rock or earth in any shape or form. Toph can only bend earth, and things that contain earth (metal for example).

    Roku might've learned from dragons, but I see no reason why he would've. Aang didn't learn from Appa, he learned from monks, Roku probably learned from fire sages (being the heir to the throne's best friend has its perks).

    Remember Fang?

    I am sure both Roku and Sozin learned some elements from their dragons(who they found as kids in an abandoned nest and raised)but they never met the fire warriors

    oh right. sorry wot i was meant to say was did he learn the ancient way of firebending instead of fueling it from anger. it is most likely he did learn the ancient way coz dragons were still around when iroh was alive which was years and years after roku. i woudnt imagine roku fuelling fire from anger but he did direct aang towards jeong jeong who was an anger fuelled firebender and not the best teacher and i wud imagine roku 2 direct aang 2 an ancient learned firebender like himself unless he wasnt 1 at all. omg im just ramblin on and contradicting myself but wot the hell!

    The grammar thought police would hate you. I don't think Roku learnt from the dragons I think he was taught the same corrupt way as everyone else. That being said he's still probably a better firebender than Aang or Zuko based on experience.
