Data is a character we know and admire, who asks us to be better than ourselves. Shouldn't we start a new topic on him and his amazing life?
( Topic title taken from a line in a TNG episode, the one where Data meets the holodeck comedian )
The Liuetenant Commander of Mirth, Data

I like the character of Data and what he brought to the show.
But the idea of Androids scares me. The are supperior to humans in almost everyway. I find the idea of them very unsettling.

What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Life forms. You precious little life forms...
Lieutenant Commander Data is (or should I say was) always my favourite character in all of Trek.I was deeply saddened by his death in Nemesis, as it was as poorly scripted and carried out as Kirk's.

See, I thought it was well done. Sudden, unexpected, but thoroughly. selfless and helped to save the day. We all can't have Spock-like death scenes. Death often is sudden.Crushproof wrote:Life forms. You precious little life forms...

Don't you hear my call, though you're many years away, don't you hear me calling you?
