Oh I am LAME

Also, kinda sleepy. But mostly, lame. And listless. And bored. So much trouble concentrating.

Random: Has it ever been definitively said whether or not Sylar can take abilities from the dead?
(I'm still fuzzy on HOW he absorbs the powers, because I am slow.)

This has not come up, as such. However...
(I'm still fuzzy on HOW he absorbs the powers, because I am slow.)
This comes back to Gabriel Grey's natural ability: intuitive aptitude. He did not take Eden's ability (imagine if he HAD? -- my evil, dirty mind says Mohinder would totally be his puppet right now) because she shot herself in the head. Either this is because her brain was too damaged for him to be able to figure out how her ability works (Chandra Suresh said to him that if the ability resides anywhere, it's in the brain) or simply because she was dead. Either way, she was utterly useless to him.
This is pretty well conjecture on my part, because nothing's been explicitly stated on the show. Sylar's ability allows him to see how systems of varying complexity -- up to and including the human brain -- work. So what he seems to do is examine the system of the brain of these people with abilities and figure out how their brain chemistry, and/or their DNA, is set up. And then, because he also seems to have the ability, desire, or just skill, to fix things, he fixes himself by altering his own brain chemistry/DNA/whatever, making himself better.
That help at all?
(God, whenever I start answering your questions about the show and the characters with my theories/guesstimates/whatever you want to call it, I feel like SUCH a nerd. SUCH A NERD.)
