It's a bit similar to the political situation in the UK! We hate our politicians to the Enth degree and they think of us as a cattle to be used how and whenever! Very similar I'd say!

"The Cloud Minders"
- Thread starter Qonundrum
- Start date
I'm still waiting for the sequel "Droxine Goes to the Mines."
BTW I think I mentioned this already but Droxine's relationship with her father is touching and well-drawn. It's one of the better third-party relationships ever depicted on TOS.

Droxine, eh? I preferred Vana myself!

I think it might have been more impressive if it were floating upside down on the cloud.

JB, we already had this conversation about six months ago!
What's next, you give a repeat order to increase the orbit another few thousand perigees? 
And a frequent feature of Robert McCall paintings, IIRC.
Are you trying to say that I'm like Kirk in The Deadly Years, Phase? 
why this is mutiny, Mister!!!!

The cloud city, I'm surprised this isn't being cited as an example of season 3 Trek hitting us over the head with a message. They're up in the sky as a CLASS DIVIDE. An aristocracy benefits from all the work done below, who don't get to reap any of the benefits themselves. The cloud minders are just so much "better", the workers only fit to work and die. It's like a prince's castle moat, or they're the ultimate gated community.
The way of all worlds it seems, Unknown!

High and lofty (ivory tower/elite snobs) up in the air, rather than muckraking scum below (aka down-to-earth disadvantaged folks).

Yes, once she changes out of the mining outfit, it's like "Helllooooo, Vanna!"
When you visit Stratos, remember to read all of the instructions very carefully!

Vana was definitely the more attractive especially with all that colourful make-up she had time to use before being incarcerated in the prison cell!

Droxine was much hotter

This is the second time I've seen you make comments like this.
Ranking women by "hotness" is not cool. Please stop.

So it's only OK for everyone else to do it but not me
Yes. You understood my point perfectly.
Public statements by moderators are meant for everyone. Others in this thread have been spoken to previously, and will be held accountable for their behavior.
You’re awfully new here to start arguing with moderators. The correct procedure if you have an issue is to PM the moderator.
Or, you know, just do what I asked and move on.
Either way, do not continue derailing this thread or you’ll receive a formal warning.
The end.
Meanwhile, back on Stratos....I thought that the sets designed by Matt Jefferies for this episode were great, considering that the 3rd season budget was smaller than my monthly paycheck. 
That sounds very similar to our status in the States, JB.
