    "Moron; now THAT is a convincing argument!

    Torez and Kim trade holodeck time. I don't have the DVDs available, but it's stuff that's casually mentioned in downtime while they're doing engineering type tasks. It's not anything that is plot critical, so it rarely shows up in synopses (which I'm guessing is the only way you've "watched" Voyager if you aren't aware of the the fact that there are two crews on a starship with only two holodecks (unless you count sickbay, which I don't).

    Ion power isn't about horse power it's about efficiency.

    I'm not sure sure what your point is here -- I said nothing about what ion power was or wasn't. (But I know what it is, and you're not wrong.)

    My allusion was to an original series Star Trek where they Scottie mentioned ion power and got all excited about it, as it was vastly superior to the dilithium crystals (which created anti-matter somehow) that powered their own ship. The joke is that we've already figured out ion power, sort of -- it's antimatter (and fusion and other things) power that evades us.

    As for protecting against radiation, they could add lots of shielding. Charged particle radiation could be deflected by a large magnetic field (superconducting magnets around the outer edge? Being in space would make it easier to keep them cold), maybe, with EM radiation blocked by lots of mass. Making the ship more massive would make it slower, but you could give it a sphere shape and have the crew spend most of its time in the very center, with all the equipment and fuel and stuff surrounding them and adding some shielding by itself. If the engines release lots of radiation, have them far away from the crew quarters -- perhaps miles away, connected with a boom. (Niven's science fiction world has where the engines pull the crew quarters with many mile long tethers -- but that would require being able to aim the exhaust very precisely.)

    As for using old people, considering that the ship would cost a trillion or so dollars to make, we're not going to man it with people likely to die or have other medical problems during a mission. Instead, we'll minimize the risks as much as practical, then tell people the risks remaining and ask for volunteers. I doubt they'd have a problem finding young, healthy, appropriately skilled people to volunteer for a mission that could result in their death from cancer (and many other things) if it meant they'd be the first people to go to Europa, for example.

    Dr. Ross did not sell information to the Chinese, and there were no proceeds to hide.

These turned out to be serious errors in judgment. (As I've mentioned elsewhere, I don't support his position. Like Mr. Spock, I do not approve. I understand.)

    There is no difference between Dr. Ross' belief in the superiority of free academic discourse over US export regulation, and the position espoused by some here of the superiority of FOSS principles over those same regulations. By stopping its export of controlled technology to banned countries, SourceForge made the only rational decision it could make, under the circumstances.
