I want to talk about 'Endgame'

[Guy Gardener]

I was trying not to seem defensive which was what the first draft of that post I wrote and erased stank of. Not being an ass and a pit bull for once is extremely generous for me here., but if you want none of that, here we go...

logistics = Logistics is the management of the flow of goods, information and other resources, including energy and people, between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet the requirements of consumers (frequently, and originally, military organizations). Logistics involves the integration of information, transportation, inventory, warehousing, material-handling, and packaging, and occasionally security. Logistics is a channel of the supply chain which adds the value of time and place utility. Today the complexity of production logistics can be modelled, analysed, visualized and optimized by plant simulation software.

ie RESOURCES per TIME.

Logistics is decided by the people paying the bills.

IE MONEY.

they don't want to use more episodes on the finale because they didn't think they would make money. they told Berman all the things he was not allowed to do because it would in their opinion make them lose money. The controlled his use of time to control how he lost or made them money.

Control.

It's a frakking business not art and barely story telling, just framing fluff to make the advertising easier to knock back. If you're not going to buy the breathmints and tampons they advertise during the airing of episodes of Voyager you you are a nonentity stealing from these suits who are anger by your presumption to not to buy breath mints and tampons when Voyager should be lulling you into such a docile state of complete suggestibility that you should medically need tampons even if your genitals are on the outside.

hells, the wiki entry I pasted said that logistics is also about the value of time'/b], which makes financial logistics quite redundant, but then i love redundancy all most as much as i like repeating myself.

Granted, it does seem to be a change of pace for you.

... and does not change the fact that you were wrong to characterize Evil Person's comments as being about money, when all he was talking about was time.

Are you incapable of admitting mistake?

Post 23.

I said sorry and apologised for making a simple clerical error of mixing up 1/4 the mass of the galaxy for another 1/4 the mass of the galaxy, which made my claimed point of view even more unintelligible than unusual.

Now that I'm not boiling of with righteous indignation (is their a wankier way to say puffy chested?) and reexamined the original text, I think that your sarcasimeter might be on the blink. Because I was obviously implying (arguably) humourously that the Berman had the force of will to over power the time constraints put on voyager by the moneymen fronting Voyager from the Network. That he could have taken Paramount and the powers that be by the balls and dictated terms because he had all the leverage.

How is that conceivable ever?

Berman was a yesman.

He, might of took a stand here and there, but really?

Judging form the final product, Rick and most everyone under him said "yes" constantly even as they all got a pineapple stuffed up their bums every day as a reward for serving questionable and dodgy masters measuring art by the cent and success by the ad revenue.

There's always a choice.

RDM ran.

I was facetiously agreeing with evil person by saying that something incontrovertibly impossible was an ascertained fact.

I suppose I could have added a roll eyes icon?

Yes I probably should have, but I loath smilies.
