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.

Hope springs eternal, eh? I guess this case is a little different because 'Trek forgot so quickly about the idea of subspace pollution which it introduced. I just would have hoped :roll: that if the idea were going to be abruptly re-introduced as a major factor in starship design, a little more attention to detail would have been paid.

I'm glad they forgot about something. It was a crap idea.

You said that right. In a more perfect world, the whole idea would have been laughed out of the writers' room.

If one nacelle took damage at the joint where the "servomotor" would be, locking one down, would Voyager still be able to go to warp, or would this unbalance the warp field?

It's the Night of the Living Threads!


I know, terrible pun, but I'm surrounded by re-animated threads here. I'm getting scared. :P
