Re: NASA finds liquid water on Mars

Clever, but OLD. Didn't APOD do this for April Fools a few years back?

Re: Fix the NX class

Well, I was responding to your comment where you agreed with Stitch where he said, "if we do not see/hear about it, it does not exist." Well that doesn't help you much since I never said that anyways. If you wish to direct a statement about something I said, then make sure I in fact said ...

Re: Fix the NX class

This would seem to suggest that we can assume nothing ever happens unless we see it happen. No, we can assume something happened but we can NOT declare that said thing happened. Its a simple shift in statements. "This happened in canon because of this" becomes "I believe this happene...

Re: Fix the NX class

For Trek canon, if we do not see/hear about it, it does not exist. Without diving into this argument because I have the personal feeling that the only fix of the NX is to burn it. Stitch's comment here sums it up. I've had to point this out a number of times to a lot of people, Mod's included, but ...

Even though I felt like screaming in outrage when I read that the next movie is to be about Khan, I have to admit that I'm really intrigued about this title.
I thought they said that this rumour was incorrect, that the movie wasn't about Khan.

Re: Zombie attack...

Trouble with guns is that you gotta carry all that ammo with you, it's gonna run out eventually and every shot you fire announces your location to hoards of ravenous zombies.

Gather supplies and small, easily carried weapons that don't need reloading. AKA crowbars.

Re: Fix the NX class

No, we simply have to view the Olympic as a slightly different evolution of the design aesthetic - as a medical ship one that favors increased volume of a sphere over the more warp efficient saucer. This is the same attitude held toward the Akira until the NX showed up on screen showing an almost i...

Re: Fix the NX class

As I said, that argument works ONLY if we MUST have seen that evidence. Since there is nothing to show that we have seen every class of ship Starfleet has, your argument fails on this count. I don't know how to explain this any better so you'll get it, but I'll try (even though I get the feeling th...

Re: Fix the NX class

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence unless that evidence must be there. So if you are saying that we MUST have seen the intermediary stages, then you'd have a point. But since we never saw ANYTHING to show that the intermediaries were absent, then for all we know they were there the whol...

Re: Fix the NX class

First of all, who's to say that there weren't ships that bore a resemblance to the NX class all through the ages? Four series and a bunch of movies, all of which were produced prior but set subsequently to ENT, are who's to say that precise thing. I'm sorry, but I must have missed the episode of TO...

Re: Fix the NX class

We all know the NX class is a direct ripoff of the Akira class. We all know that modern kayaks are rip offs of the canoes that have been used for centuries. Honestly, I don't see that the Akira class having the same basic hull shape as the NX class is a problem. It's only problem in that if we look...

Re:

Here's a bet for you. Within two years, the entire DVD section of any given shop will occupy as much shelf space as the VHS tapes do now (ie precious little). Within five, it will be hard to buy a movie on DVD at all. It'll be hard to buy a player for them too. Given that we're just about there now...
