Around 1968.

Yeah, you know. Right after the discovery of fire.

Yeah, that was great. Dad used to tell us how horrible it was to eat raw mammoth.

Sweet zombie jebus! Three of Cambells best known works:

Witchita Lineman
Galveston
Rhinestone Cowboy

BTW: Jimmy Webb wrote Witchita Lineman.

I know Rhinestone Cowboy. I don't think I've ever actually heard Witchita Lineman, and I've never heard of Galveston. "Oldies" music ( ) is really the only music i listen to. Nothing really newer than the 70s.

You and me shall get along fine

I think Tsuki and Mikey might have a few suggestions, but we might be a little to lightweight for them.

Look through some of the songs with links thread. there are some real jems that Sunny, mikey, me and Tsuki have posted.

Here's a Sci-Tech of the Extreme Future

Reflector Shields

Starfleet deflector shield tech has led to the development of a "Reflector Shield". Upon taking fire, the ships shields quickly modulate to an exact opposite frequency of the enemy weapons, therefore, not only deflecting the damage, but actually "REFLECTING" the damage back along the angle from which it was fired. Continuous beam weapons are the most greatly effected by this, as they will ride there own beam back to impact against the firing ship. Pulse weapons and even torpedo damage will still be reflected back towards the firer with with less precision and a loss of power.

That's not a bad Idea, It could work kind of like the bose headphones designed to block out incoming sound by emmiting an inverse frequency to cancel it out.
However using this principal (as I think you are) energy wepons would simply be canceled, not reflected, torps maybe.

Well, shields that cancel out energy weapons altogether would be a pretty serious defense.

So what happens if two ships thusly equiped with reflective shielding open fire on each other, shots bouncing off left right and centre.

I tried to get a smilie to demonstrate my idea more clearly - but it seems you did it in two words

That's given me some pretty hilarious mental imagery.
