who else thought this about the Borg?

[Sector 7]

Guinan was never wrong about anything, as I recall. Even Picard trusted her without reservation.

Well, Mr. Spock 7, there's a first time for everything!

Now, something occured to me. Perhaps the reason the Borg only sent one cube to assimilate the Federation on two different occasions is they might've been occupied with a greater threat? We know from the VOY two-part ep Scorpion that Species 8472 was one of the only threats we've seen capable of destroying the Borg, and that from the eps, we believe they were a recent threat.

But suppose the Borg engaged Species 8472 earlier than we thought and were occupied trying to destroy them? As I recall, the Borg invaded fluidic space first -- we just don't know exactly when that happened precisely. Perhaps the Collective felt they couldn't spare any more cubes to assimilate the Federation -- it wouldn't be the first time they've made a mistake. Or perhaps they were engaged with another unknown threat, and they made the same conclusion I outlined above -- more resources needed to stop the greater threat.

Wonder what you all think of that hypothesis.

this is intense I was not in High School but college when that aired well Maybe? what year was that? That should be an easy trivia right. but what gets me at this point is the hanging on every last word as if, well you are alright to do so but even still .., One does not act within the confines of time and space for mere peanuts on the dollar or less then that these actors are yes get this "actual people" that make mistakes and such, sometimes the fact that Guinan was pronouncing a c like an s reminds me of a rhyme going to that such that "I see as an ass" sorta but really; no offense but trying to spell offense I had typed that s as a c twice with speller correcting me both times and then checking list replacements to see the c is an s but whatever I have typed way too much and must get back to the goals of the day or so I think that there are goals today .., Maybe sorta kinda like..,

Your brain seems drugged. Perhaps this side of reality is the right side, so come back!

This is your brain....on the dark side!

Maui Wowee? Man, I hadn't heard that one since I was a kid and had no idea what it meant.

Aw, those were the days....
