I had a letter printed in Newsweek, so I know your feeling.

My theory on registry numbers is: When a new starship class is commissioned a block of registry numbers is set aside for that class. But if later on, once that block of consecutive numbers has been used up, more ships of the class are needed they're just assigned random numbers. It doesn't...

Two reactions: Sorry to hear this and, damn, he's younger than me.

Not to be a contrarian here, but I was disappointed. The temporal dilemma regarding the Baldwin survivors was interesting, but I saw the resolution coming a mile away. The Klingon commander was more of annoyance than a threat as if the ship had to be facing an external danger as well as trying...

Section 32 cleans up after Section 31.

What? No votes for a "ship diplomat" instead of having the Captain do it?

Darn, I was just at a B&N yesterday, didn't see it and I always check the Trek section (what there is of it these days).

While I'm sure you didn't mean it as such, here in the US the word "twat" is often used in reference to the female organ. Given that the most recent Blue Origin flight had all female passengers, you might wish to edit your post.

If it doesn't make orbit, it ain't spaceflight.

Very nice. Color accurate, which mine certainly isn't. I'll chalk that up to better references than I had. I have seen the actual studio model and the color photographs differently than it actually looks. Is that Defiant from the Hallmark 3 piece small set?

Probably named for somebody named Fred.

Sorry to hear this.

Because, if you're committed to a prequel, not making it "Birth of the Federation" is kind of dumb. That's a story folks wanted to see and maybe one of the reasons for ENT's low ratings was that it wasn't that.

I can see the appeal of of human male/Vulcan female relationships for certain human males. Vulcans embrace logic, which some human males might find absent in human females. Also, due to the longer life spans Vulcan females would retain their looks longer than human ones. I'm not embracing...

Geordi's wife isn't named Leah, but he's accidentally called her that a couple of times.

Glad to see this coming back.

Mirror Borg: "Come join up with us. Compliance is voluntary."

Just a moment's observation on how well the casting people have done recreating the characters with younger actors, with the exception of Harry, maybe Deb.

Well, there is James Cameron and Terminator, which pinged Harlan's "You're ripping me off" radar. I think that one was probably over the top. I don't know if Poul Anderson (or his estate) went after Cameron over similarities between Avatar and "Call me Joe". I mentioned Heinlein earlier and...

Well, there was David Gerrold reaching out to Robert Heinlein over the similarities between Tribbles and Flat Cats. And in addition to the Trek episode Arena there was also an Outer Limits episode called Fun and Games for which Brown got no credit. Outer Limits also ripped off a story by...
