Year of Hell - Why was Tuvok Blind?

Yeah, lazy bitch!
With a simple voice command, Tuvok configured his console for a tactile response (like 24th-century Braille). I'm guessing this is a standard option for visually impaired crewmembers.
I did notice that we never actually saw this in action. How would it work when Voyager has 100% touchscreen controls??
7 years of TNG and this never came up?
End of Before and After, Tuvok totally said that he wanted to talk about the Krenim.
He was inside her mind "training Kes" all the time.
Anorax had spent 200 years changing the timeline over and over before our story started. Before and After probably never happened int he timelines leading towards the particual Year of Hell we fixated on.

Actually, the timeline in which that occurred was erased by the many machinations of the Krenim.
One wonders if it also erased the timeline in which "Tuvix" occurred. If so we've been arguing for 15 years about an episode that no longer exists in this timeline.
If annorax had deleted voyager from history, like he tried to, wouldit have deleted just the ship, or the entire crew too.
If it was just the ship, then it could never have gotten snapped up by the caretaker in the badlands and the starfleet crew would have wound up in the Alpha Quadrant which was the whole point of Janeways journey......
stuff the maquis...(yeah, i thought about them after I started typing)

I don't buy that logic at all. From what we saw on the show, the first time Voyager was hit by one of those temporal waves was at the beginning of "Year of Hell Pt 1". The idea that Voyager's history was constantly being changed right from the pilot is ridiculous to me, and there's no evidence for it.
Annorax had been at it for 200 years so yes
The further out, less changes there are. Events around Ocampa may have been too far do any changes in Kremin history to have signficance.
Pssst...why don't we just leave the moderating to the moderators?
And Tuvok went blind from doing too much of the thing all our fathers tell us will make us go blind.
Its a ridiculous explanation.
But they went through a huge amount of calculations and simulations before he sent out his temporal wave. He designed it to effect only the area of space he wanted to be restored.
In Tapestry Q told Picard that nothing bad would happen to the Federation because he, Picard, just wasn't that important - in the grand scheme of things. Perhaps what Annorax was trying to do was also just not that important in the grand scheme of things. So it only effected that area of space.

But it doesn't work like that! Look down at your keyboard, that little plastic space bar, imagine if you erased that from time...does that mean you bought your laptop without a space-bar? Or does it mean it was fitted with another one? If it does, does that mean that there are a number of other laptops that have different plastic space bars than they otherwise would have done? Did the factory produce one less space bar that day or did it produce one in this timeline that it wouldn't have done in the other?
Erasing from time, by definition, can't be confined to a specific area! Q could do it because he was omnipotent and could make all the necessary modifications to history!

The metal on the hull would be erased from time... But that just means that the Federation Engineering Corps would have dig a little deeper to find new metal to make the ship which would knock everything off by about 12 seconds, if they're mining enough Ore at the same time to make a hundred starships when they ship a consignment to Oceania Planetia where there's production line pumping intrepids to face thenext big threat...
Point is, that as the ship dissapears, you were never on it, to be destroyed with it, which is why Annorax was alive in the end, or the same Krenim extras kept popping up during the course of the show, even though their ships would change in design and capabilioty along with the entire universe.

It is essential, we can't do with out it. Some keyboards have 2 space bars and other, mostly for the disabled, have programmable keys so the space bar can be any key you want it to be. Older keyboard had the "¢" on it. It's not there anymore. It wasn't that essential, ever. If it was erased from the history of keyboards, people would have just typed $0.12 instead of 12¢.
That's a terrible logic. The galaxy isn't like a keyboard. Remember, there were huge regions that wasn't populated. We saw such regions in TNG, VOY and ENT. I'm not sure about DS9. It's possible for the effects to be less apparent further out in some cases. Some races may have a huge impact far beyond their part of space. But I doubt most do.
I somehow don't think eradicating Betazoids would affect the Kazon before Voyager encounters them.
