I don't think I would stop watching, but Archer is the character I care most about. He has evoved the most in my opinion, and I am most interested in what he will be like after th Xindi arc. But I do not want to lose any of the main chartacters!

I would like to see a Star Trek movie where they meet the Vidians now, when they are no longer desparate. What kind of culture has developed? How do you go from a desparate, pirate-like culture, to having normal diplomatics relations with another species? How would other species who knew of their violence, or were victims of it, now deal with them? Are they isolated from other species? Do they have anything to offer as a race that others might want to trade with them for, and so risk getting to know them after all this? What was their culture like before the phage, and were they able to return to it? Answering these questions would make a good story.

President Bush goes back to the ranch sometimes. It's good for 'presidents' to take a breather every now and then...or at least a change of environs while they continue to work.......

Cashews are wonderful!

My backyard is actually association property, and I mainly see robins, cardinals, and sparrows. I have seen salamanders in our parking lot. I was told to look out for deer, but I have only seen one on the drive home, not near the property. On the walking trails in our develpment I have seen other creatures. There is a swan, and several mallards living on a lake at the end of one of the walking trails. A little more than just the back yard, but things I see regularly.

I remember in one episode of Enterprise, the one where they had the ship of vulcans who lived without logic, there was a discussion with T'pol and one of those Vulcans about Vulcan teas. I wouldn't mind being able to try a Vulcan tea.

I am a coffee drinker, so I want to try Raktjino! My second choice would be plomeek soup.

Cute like tarantulas are cute. I would not want to be in a room with them.

I missed the episode Wednesday, so had to wait until today. I enjoyed the episode very much, but I still gave it an 8.5. I think I like it as much as last week's episode, which I also gave an 8.5

I voted lots of choices.....um...bored harry?

Yes....Girl scout camp growing up...we called them latrines.....we had to help "clean" them.....called latrine duty......ick.........Jeanway, where do you get all these ideas?

I wear glasses.. I look better WITH glasses......no contacts.

Carbohydrates are in the diets of most every culture in the world....so why cut them out? I actually eat less meat than I used to, and have more overall balance in my diet. I have no intention of trying Atkins.

Hope you feel better soon, or at least get a good night's sleep!

It's been a good place for me, too. Although it has not affected me as deeply as you describe UA, it has caused me to do one thing that is completely out of character, and that is to converse regularly with strangers on sometimes quite deep topics. :unsure:

I can hardly believe I began to talk here (I never intended to---I planned to lurk in the Star Trek forum...), and now of course, I go on and on and on. I am more reticent in real life, although I meet new people regularly through teaching....that is a well-defined format where the subject matter of "discussions" is what is being taught. I do get to know some students well, but that is over time, and with face-to-face contact.

Now I feel like I "know" people I have actually never met! I enjoy talking to them! How remarkable!

I did not vote because I am not married. But my father slept on the right side.

Well, I hope nothing happens to Archer, who is one of my favorite Enterprise characters. But it is hopeful that they are aware of fan efforts to save Enterprise.

ST, I loved Chakotay! Be still my heart! If I did not have Sisko and Worf in my avatar, it might have been Chakotay! :unsure:

But on a serious note, I do not think Janeway could have united the two crews it she had made Chakotay only a second officer. She had to make him second in command. I think he was a good choice because he did not see things the way she did. Tuvok would have been a near Janeway clone in terms of policies and perspectives, with everything tempered by logic, of course.

Interesting that the Andorian govenment that deals with the Federation only represents 30% of the population. How is that allowed?

It's one of my favorite episodesof TOS. ( I have about fourteen of them!)

I like them all and I can not vote

I almost agree. I just do not wish any of them gone...not till I see some issues resolved.

The Klingons also have red blood (when it hits the air). Unless you are going to try to pick up every subtly of shade, which makes even less sense, then there are going to be repeats in the color of blood.

There has to be a reason for the color also. For instance, the Vulcans' blood is based on the element copper, rather than iron.

I voted Hayes. I do not know enough about which actor wants to leave the show to make a guess at a regular cast member.

Well, for me it was between Sato and Uhura.

Sato had a bigger challenge in the performance of her job, and more personal challenges to overcome, her fear of being on a starship, for example. She also was a linguinstics prodigy. And they were just developing the universal translator. The translation of the language of the web-like creature that had the captain, Trip, a security officer, and two engineers captive, was brilliant.

Uhura was a more seasoned, reliable bridge officer who knew her job to the hilt, including being able to repair her station, and so had engineering as well as linguistic skills. In the Enterprise cartoon series, there was even an episode where she had to take command of Enterprise! That demonstrated initiatve. So she had the potential to be a command officer, had her ambitions led her in that direction. She was also skilled at other duty stations, as we have seen her operate the transporter. We have seen her handle the comm station on alien ships, and so forth.

Uhura is the more complete of the two. I voted for her. As Sato continues to develop, she will attain or excede Uhura's depth.

I voted Eh?

I am not eevil (though if you ask family members they will tell you I went through some kind of transformation after getting saved and that I was very difficult to get along with before that, my most common comment being "don't talk to me!" ).

I almost never get angry now....although a few people at stf.net have provoked me every now and then. I am not at all vindictive, and I apologize when shown to be wrong, even to students and entires classes. I continue to mellow as I age. :)
