Homing pigeons only return home.
Now Rob, there you go again being, uhm, logical and realistic. Part of me thinks this IS canon because of the logical fallacies. Now, as we know, the c's are sticklers for realism and logic at all times.

Someone dropped the pigeon off at its location.
"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."

Maybe it was Adam who homed the pigeon to her doorstep? It seemed to fly into the tree but not further. Or it's a slight suspension of disbelief thing and your arguement is simply nit-picking.

Sorry to nit-pick, but if Adam homed the pigeon then he must know who sent the message.

Besides, he seemed to have no idea where the pigeon came from.

That's what I was implying. It would explain the obvious bad acting.

I'm not saying this is what they're trying to convey though. Just an example of the many ways you can explain the pigeon thing. I just think it's a tiny continuity hole that they wont bother to cover up.

Because he's obviously acting.

Again, not saying that's where the plot is actually going.

Anyone with the right editing software could do this.
That was the weirdest display of geekdom that I have ever seen in my entire life.

Maddison isn't canon. Anyone who is canon would not want to move off the LG15 site.

The Pigeon Was a Private Transmission!

Give it up Rob you are in Phanatical Phanwank land here. Every absurd plot hole and ridiculous logic error can be explained away... Don't argue with them, it is kinda pointless.

She didn't create that live journal surrealistic pill did to try to handle the amount of stuff that flew at us all at once.

Yup, there is some dead-horse-flogging on this topic going on over at http://www.lonelygirl15.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8787 -- I now agree with you that this most likely means MA isn't canon.

Probably not, but it's well integrated, well timed...and good quality. Nothing wrong with that, I suppose.
