  1. There are many reasons for saucer sections to be able to separate.  One important one is the ability to escape a warp core breach.  Starships have ejection systems but they do fail.  When they do, everyone jumps in the saucer section and gets away form the drive section.  (Generations) As for exploding computer terminals mentioned somewhere above.  Why do they explode.  Obviously there is a surge of power, but why can't they limit how much power that can enter a console.  This would be very simple... all it would take is a fuse!  You'd think if humans could create a faster than light starship, they could at least figure that out!  I've seen one to many officers die from consoles... strange how it's never a main character. 

    Didn't they also try to eject the saucer or something in one of the episodes of TNG involving time travel?

     

    As for the main character... it just isn't suitably heroic. :bow:


  2. Sorry to buck the trend, but I really am a bit indifferent. All of the various changes would be okay. All of them are fine. With this one the " STARTREKFANS.NET" is bigger. I don't think I am discerning enough to really think that this one is better than the previous one. It's the substance of the website that draws me. There is plenty of "star trek" things to do, and people here are varied, civil, and many know way more about Star Trek than I do. As long as I can recognize that I am at the right place, you can continue to tweak the logo until it's what you want.

    I agree with that, however I do like the new logo.

    Photoshop is fun; tweak away!

     

    The only thing I'd like to see different is the station slightly bigger.


  3. Are we talking about the new Twighlight Zone or the old one??

    There is only one Twilight Zone. The rest are just poor copies :laugh:

    Oh i dont know.The ones they had on UPN a while ago had a few good episodes.But on a whole i agree the original will always be the best.

    I'm of the opinion that the first was the best. The only thing that any knockoff did better was the opening sequence in The Outer Limits, and that's just because the computer graphics were better.


  4. I'm listening to "Date with Ikea" from their CD Brighten the Corners now; I was wondering if anybody could help me identify another song of theirs.

     

    It uses the phrase 'bouncing around' a lot in the chorus, has some pretty good harmonies... I can't remember the name or CD. Help, anyone?

    Thanks!


  5. Right, I intended to say this earlier and just realized I forgot:

     

    They were on the news in Silicon Valley two weeks ago. I saw them and was like, "Hey, aren't they...?" My cousin was the one who first told me about them. (Somehow, he manages to be a rabid Trekkie and Luddite at the same time)
