Maybe. I rewatched "Home" from season 2 recently. Sharon's comments about the Lords of Kobol and the god "Athena" ring very oddly now. Add that to the "orbs" at the end of last season, maybe the ship of lights and co. are going to pay us a visit. IIRC, in the spin-off novels of the original series that Hatch wrote (not good, I'm sorry to say) he made them the ancestors of the Kobollians. Maybe Moore's headed that way with it.
I hate the fact they are splitting the season. No idea about the last 10 episodes...maybe in the fall (they are filming the last 7 or 8 now) but SciFi will probably hold them till 2009.
As for why he/she wasn't activated, perhaps they have a different "trigger"? Instead of the song "All Along the Watchtower", it's the Colonial version of a Disney cartoon?

I'm afraid that may be true. He's in a key position to have been manipulating a lot of things all along.
I just don't care much for his character as they've not done much with him. All we know is he was a kid obsessed with getting to serve on a Battlestar. He gets his dream, and the world ends before he has had any kind of a life. He idolized and was let down by Baltar, and now hates him enough to perjure himself and attempt murder. It just seems a little weak, IMO.
