See, this is why it would've been much better if T'Pol had just been an Vulcan observer/overseer from the beginning, and not in the chain of command. She could then have been a civilian scientist, heading a civilian science team on board. Perhaps this is how the relationship between Starfleet and UE...

HAPPY NEW YEAR everybody!

Or as we say in Sweden:

GOTT NYTT ?R!

And I'd like to express my thanks to all the folks who'd made the creation of Triaxian Silk a possibility and a reality. Great work and my hat goes off to you for keeping the ENT and TnT hope alive! :banana:

I think I've seen some fans claiming that WW3 and the Eugenics Wars were the same thing? :? I claim this. It fits well with what I know of the two. Even if they technically should be classified as separate engagements, it makes more sense (to me, anyhow) that they are one and the same. Man, this is...

How does Trek deal with the "fact" that the Eugenics Wars were originally set to have happened in the 1990s? And is it war or war s ? That is contradicted with some episodes of VOY where they come back in time to that period and there isn't an augment in sight. And what is exactly canon about WW3? I...

Uh ... I've honestly never noticed that. I guess that, since I mostly skim over NC-17 fics anymore, those lines just never attracted my notice. Given that Trip is American, however, it does seem to cause something of a minor disconnect ... Unless it went out of style in the 22nd century, with smoki...

Anyway, what a silly concept! The Federation Nanny State has invented some stuff that takes the ill after effects away but leaves the previous inebriation intact! Actually the Feringi are to thank for that. Knowing what they now about the Commie Lib sentiments of the Federation they probably though...

IMO, smoking simply doesn't fit any of the characters on ENT regardless of the circumstances. Well, the thread title is more about whether there is smoking at all in the 22nd century, and I think it is. In fact, if Trek had been a tad more realistic then I'd say that smoking also took place in the ...

In the hypotethical situation that I was going to write an NC-17 fic, I wouldn't even think about going on such a tangent to explain this issue since I'm European. Mostly it's just that they describe pulling back the foreskin in the telling of the story, not really making a big point out of it. OK,...

Hence, I don't see why these non-smokers would abruptly start smoking, regardless of the occasion. And a fic that would suddenly have these non-smokers breaking out the cigars or pipes or cigarettes immediately scream OOC to me and it's probable that I'd stop reading from that point. I don't know i...

NO, you see they make a point of saying that he isn't cut, not that he is. OK, but the only reason for anyone to even making a point of this fact is that they're writing from an American perspective. In the hypotethical situation that I was going to write an NC-17 fic, I wouldn't even think about g...

This is a very American phenomenon. Unless you're a Jew or so, this isn't practiced anywhere else in the world. Certainly not in Europe. There are no medical reasons for circumcision and all us non-Americans and non-Jews manage quite all right without it. I can understand the religious reasons for J...

I think he also says that he had to tie up the season 3 cliffhanger with an ending, and their was no ending in mind when they wrote that cliffhanger. (This seems to be pretty standard writing practice across the different series--to write a season finale, go on vacation, and worry about the ending ...

What's interesting that hasn't been mentioned yet is, perhaps they have a replacement analogous to synthehol. People always make comments in TNG-era about how synthehol isn't as good as "the real thing" but it's basically the replacement because it's not harmful and just replicates the taste of alc...
