In third grade, in California, we had a laserdisc for the class rather than science textbooks for each student. It was awesome.

I was working at a Sam Goody when laserdiscs first came out. There was an aura about people who were buying them - like a guy driving a Lexus SC430 in a neighborhood full of Ford Pintos.

I'd recommend none. You wouldn't have time to watch a whole episode, unless you live right up the street from the theater.
Well Tsu, I was speaking from the perspective of someone who lives next door to the cinema, so there

I don't know how to check, but I was challenged by Nick, if I make it today I finish one day ahead. Which is good since I won't be able to post tomorrow.

Yes, Rochey is spam-master general, followed by myself who is first assistant spam-master.
You can get worse than banned for mindless chatter - you can get nasty green messages.

AND over 97% of their posts are just smilies!!!
So we've done the 'best one to watch' gig. If we were to try and put people off going to see ST:XI in some sort of anti-JJ conspiracy, what ONE episode would you recommend them to watch? What is the cackest episode of all time that would put you of Trek before you began?

I know people are gonna say TOS: "The Way to Eden" and VOY: "Threshhold," but I'm going out on a limb and nominating TOS: "Catspaw."

Ent: "Two Days and Two Nights"
That will cure anyone of a desire for Trek.
