I saw a report on yahoo that said within a hundred years blonds will be a thing of the past. Within 1000 years everyone will be a coffee color. And within 10,000 years the human species will split between a short ugly dumb race and a super intelligent beautiful tall race. The closest I've ever seen ...

Has Star Trek ever shown homosexual males in any way? My room mate and I were joking that they 'cured' it in the 21st century (I know its not a disease) and then we realized hey they've actually never shown homosexuals! They've shown bisexual women in the mirror universe but that's the mirror univer...

I'd never leave them.
Reminds me of that Futurama Episode with the Propaganda movie against dating robots. "Gee crossing the street is a lot of work to do to make out when I have my fembot here with me already."

I like what someone else in the NX thread suggested that the Miranda be the successor to the NX class. Makes sense I think. Love the Miranda either way.

Still reading the thread so sorry if this has been said but Future Guy was said to be part of a plot they were working on for the 5th season according to the commentary on the first episode.

You said the odds of an Aquatic civilization starting were slim, I agreed but when I said 1/10,000 odds I meant the odds are so sliim that even if the odds were that you'd still have nearly a 100% chance of finding one because of the sheer scope of space. From a marketing stand point it makes far mo...

Data, Doctor, Worf all had major character developments. Sure there's more. But yeah T'Pol changed a lot, for that matter so did all the Vulcans on enterprise. I liked the change for them personally.

How about executing thousands of Indians by strapping them to cannons? Or burning down their temples, often with Hindu priests inside? Or the use of African/West Indian/Indian slave soldiers to subjugate their own people? yeah that's up there with pouring molten silver in somebody's eyes and ears. ...

Okay, okay, I'll cave. A non-carbon based lifeform from within the galaxy's core, used to high radiation, high temperatures, etc. That's the ONLY feasible empire/major species that would make sense. Any other spot, even if we haven't seen the particular race, we'd have heard about them, even if the...

We have done what very few have managed to do. We fought them off several times. But never against a tactical cube or hell 12 cubes like the armadas we saw against 8472. The Borg seemed to me only to take marginal interest in the Federation, why else only send one whey they have several hundred tho...

Mayweather from Enterprise is even worse. What a boring actor / character / physical looking person. I blame him for the series going off the air. Him and that damn song.

Chimps use sticks and stones as tools, of course they haven't domesticated fire yet. What we're saying is that you need cetain things to get into space, fire, electricity etc. Which is why an aquatic species (such as sharks or dolphins) getting into space is very unlikely. Still, even if it was 1/1...

I think you guys over exaggerate the cruelity of the British Empire. Sure it had its bad moments but compared to other Empires in history like the Spainish one, for example, it wasn't that bad. And it all boils down to the people in the Empire not the Empire itself that was evil and its all a matter...
