Looking at the desktop picture available at the new Fox 'Firefly' DVD site I notice some text on the greyish part of the picture, which seems to say something like:

'Firefly Class' ???-bulk freighter with a strobed ????? acceleration core'

Can anyone fill in the blanks and tell me if this is some official designation, or just some webmonkey making things up?

I see ???-bulk transport with a standard radion class accelerator core

I have suspicions that the "???-bulk" may actually say something about the hull, but I am unsure.

Is this part of the line that River rattles off during the pilot?

It's "Mid-bulk transport, Standard Radion Accelerator Core. Class code 03-k64, Firefly" actually.

I thought my quote sounded a bit off, but it was what all the transcripts I saw read.

Anyone have a link to some new transcripts? I've been using Whoa Good Myth all this time, it's a great site, but I'm finding that their quotes are often incorrect.

I've heard from reliable sources that the engines on Serenity are not real. But it could be just a rumor.
