Not as far as I remember.

Everything in Star Trek is an advancement on the previous. Yet the writers know nothing about the theory of physics and make up a load of rubish, hence it being far better to leave us in the dark about a possible solution to FTL travel (etc), as any answer would soon by disproved. It is no more deserving of a mention. The fact they didn't put it in is, for once, a good part on Voyager's writers, and shows that it isn't worth of mention - by not getting one.Mikey wrote:It IS more deserving of mention. That is for the same reason that Seafort's analogies break down. We're talking about a change or advancement in the technology, not another incarnation of the same thing.
Whatever.Also, there were members of the crew who would have been unfamiliar with that particular advancement. Calling my statement tripe simply because you disagree is rather juvenile, and hardly advances your point or detracts from mine. And again, I am forced to wonder why you choose to participate in this debate if this point is so very unimportant to you.
A very salient and well-thought response, Thorin. Thank you for elevating the intellectual level of this forum. I'm sure the Kennedys are proud to see the heights of philosophy to which you've brought this discussion.Thorin wrote:You're just a d1ck head.
The only bathroom I can remember was in the special series finale of TNG hosted by Jonathan Frakes. The "head" was located on the bridge, on the starboard side, halfway down the ramp thingy. He showed it specifically. Also, it's in the Star Trek Galaxy Class Interactive Technical Manual on CD-ROM, and yes, I used to have it. Bought it back in '93 as a four disc set along with the Omnipedia Database, Episode CD, and Klingon Language Disc (you were taught Klingon by Gowron, not Worf, unfortunately).ChakatBlackstar wrote:Come to think of it, has Star Trek ever had a bathroom, or more specifically a toilet of some sort? On screen or even mentioned?

That's uncalled for. He was providing a rational arguement. You are not.Thorin wrote:You're just a d1ck head.
It's not for disagreeing with me. Read my post on the topic where he's seeking attention.ChakatBlackstar wrote:That's uncalled for. He was providing a rational arguement. You are not.Thorin wrote:You're just a d1ck head.
I'm afraid I don't see how he's seeking attention. IMO he was right. In either case that's still no reason to call people names. I'm 19 and even I know that.(Teenagers tend to be very immature and call people names more often the the average adult.)Thorin wrote:It's not for disagreeing with me.

Even if he was, something i doubt, there is still no call to lower yourself to irrespectably vindictive methods of gettin you point across....in other words...you shouldn't have called him that & shut up so we can get on with our lives instead of dwelling on what has now become bloody pointless to follow...he's left...so he wont annoy you again...Thorin wrote:He's been awaiting such a response, provoking me constantly.
I don't particularly want to quote every little part, but with a quick glance over his posts if you can't tell where these damned annoying subtle digs are everytime he directs a response at me, I'll be only too willing to.
