Just for a curiosity, do you think that atmosphere changing inside the pyramid has something to do with or somehow caused the Silica-storm outside? As I far I can recall both the event occurred consecutively or probably simultaneously.

Either this facility was not present in that surgical pod, or the computers failed to recognise it as an alien being, seeing as how it came out from a human's body. But still, it was a glaring flaw in the continuity, since we are led to believe that the technology of that time was very, very ahead, almost on par with Alien's timeline.
Totally agree with you on this part and the funny thing is when Shaw switch on that med-pod, the voice module part of it says (something like) the med-pod is only programmed to do operation(s) on male patients. WTF?? Why only male-patients? There's 3 important members in this whole project are women; so why they didn't install/have one for them? Or how come a such advanced futuristic-surgery machine is only made for male-patients? Let's assume (as I have little knowledge on surgery or medical things), for the complication part, they made separate med-pods for male & female patients. Then where's the other one for the female crews of the ship? Was it the one that was in Ms. Vickers' chamber? Then it might make some sense, assuming Shaw didn't know that or dared to go into Meredith's chamber at that point of time.

I also found the scene when David mixed that drop of substance into Holloway's drink quite lame! Cause Holloway should have clearly seen that & at least should have rejected the drink or complain about putting his finger on it.:D It was kinda poorly done, the thing should have noticed. I think it'd done better if David put the substance quickly on the bottle instead of glass as soon as he opened the bottle to fill the glass & that can be done without any attention from Holloway.
