However, I believe the OP was questioning why we haven't seen a massive object such as an asteroid fitted with long-range warp drives and used as a planet-smashing relativistic impact weapon, not why we haven't seen longer-range or higher-speed torpedoes.
Don't really see much point. There are ...

I'm getting the impression from Jordanis and Seafort that they believe that being personally religious will automatically translate into faith-based political views.

That's not the case at all. I am specifically accusing Peabody of getting his faith and politics tangled in a way that is ...

Captain Picard's Hair wrote:If Seska were the key, then Voyager should have gone after her to prevent her from sharing tech with the Kazon long before these events took place

Yeah, but Janeway is a twit.

Wait...what? First, you say that someone's religion doesn't matter...and then you use Huckabee's religion to attack him? No offense, but that seems pretty darn hypocritical to me.

No he didn't. He used a political opinion to attack him. That opinion happened to concern the role of religion ...

You're 100 posts late.

Whoops.....

Thanks. :)

We'll have to see what happens when Rochey reaches 2-stars.

Give me a couple days. :wink:

I'm guessing it's at 8000, myself, so a bit less than 200 days at your posting rate. :P

As for the commodore business, TNG doesn't have Commodore either ...

No, that's that Dune miniseries.

I am blissfully unaware of who the hell you're talking about. I find the best way to listen to music is with a ten to twenty year filter for the stupid crap.

Well, you're probably right. But to enlighten you: Rihanna is a singer who actually has a mediocre-to-decent voice, but uses it to perform ...

:lol:
God, I'd love to know who called in with that. The guy hosting the show didn't sound like he had any clue what was going on.

Coast to Coast AM is a fairly famous/infamous call-in show that gets aired late nights here in the states. Part of the point of the hosts is to be credulous, they ...

I don't think Romney falls into that category as much - I think more is made of his personal religion than actually comes out in his platform. Remember, one of the knocks against JFK was his Catholicism; people actually thought he would deliver leadership of our country to the Vatican!

I mean ...

Wow, a woman dumber than Janeway! That's amazing! :shock:

I didn't think she was that bad. A bit patriotic and traditional but she had more fire than Picard, in my view.

Also, unbelievably stupid - stranding her crew in the Delta Quadrant because she'd apparently never heard of timers, sticking ...

Congrats on the promotion, Lieutenant.

You're 100 posts late. Congrats on proving there's something above Captain, though.

No, that's Buck Rogers you are thinking of.

You sure? :? Isn't Buck Rogers the pupet one with the robot, Dr. Venus, and the catchy theme tune?

No, that's Space 1999 you are thinking of, with the blue police box that travels in time.

No, that's Battlestar Galactica. Space 1999 is the one with ...

Okay, some background on the vid is in order, I think.
The video itself is made using footage from a fan-made film called Star Wreck. The film was made by a bunch of friends in Finland, and can be downloaded for free from their site. I downloaded it, myself, yesterday and it is well worth a look ...

The difference in energy required to kill as opposed to completely vaporise is so staggering (yeah yeah, chain reaction blah blah :P) that I would guess you can't have many full-power shots from a hand phaser. Why don't they dial it up for one shot? I can't answer that, except to note that a ...
