TrekUnited Reports Mission Successful at Trek Rallies
Lord Prox writes "TrekUnited.com has the scoop on the LA/Paramount, Tel Aviv, and New York rallies. Surprises include a group of donors pledging a resounding $3mil and the appearances of cast and crew members. Reuters and Wired have details on the rallies and I took a few snapshots as well."
They want their basement back.
nuff said
Is this another Star Trek series? I keep losing track. That's like, what, seventy or so now, right?
a few snapshots
Please, I'm eating. Oh good, the server is dead...
Not the series, the poor guy's server.

More power to the server - we are being slashdotted !!
If it continues the way it has gone in this past season it should easily pass Voyager in quality and could potentially reach TNG standards
Let me get this straight - After 4 years (or however long it's been running) you're saying it's not even better than Voyager yet, and not up to the standards of TNG?
You're only reinforcing the reason i'm not watching it...I'll just stick to my slow acquisition of the DS9 box sets instead.
But is it watchable, or does one have to suffer through 2 years of high-tech, soap-opera before quality becomes obvious.
Durring the first year they insulted the viewers with soft porn (shower scence). If I want quality soft porn I watch UPN. Ooops, I stand corrected, Star Trek along with another quality show WWE is on UPN.
Or, they could give the money to an improvished school so that they could enough money for a desent computer lab.
Or, they could have given the money to an impoverished school so that they could have enough money for a decent spelling and grammar class.

So my parent is modded "Troll", because it expresses an opinion, unpopular with petit-bourgoises who find their discomforts the equivalent of real human misery?

Come on, if there is no cure for baldness but there is hyperdrive, something is wrong
By that argument, Voyager was crap too. They had a bald hologram. Surely they could have programmed him some hair.
Yeah. Fucking great.
Star Trek doesn't need great acting just less time travel, space Nazis, sucky theme tunes, and transporter cock-ups. Shatner. I rest my case.
Want to save Star Trek? Call JMS.
What happens to the money?
The obvious answer is "strippers." But, since we're talking about Trek fans, I'm going to guess "strippers with funny ears."
I thought Voyager lost serious credibility when the captain thought the prime directive applied to what was clearly a post warp culture.
On the plus side I'm looking forward to never having to watch UPN again. UPN will be as worthless as the WB network and probably devolve into showing nothing but african-american targetted sitcoms like Moesha.
Damn, this steams me:
It's storytelling and acting are relatively weak. [...]
ITS, dammit, not IT'S!
It's main redeeming quality
ITS. Not IT'S -- it's a fucking POSSESSIVE! Why do so many people around here write like retards? FUCK!! Would you write HI'S? Well, maybe you would. (BONUS FUN FACT: It's [contraction - this one IS it's] not HER'S, either!) You know, once might be a typo. Even I do that sometimes, so it happens to the best of us (me). But you do it TWICE over 3 sentences! Do you do this on purpose? Are you sick? You can't be that stupid, can you? Why do you hate English?
God DAMN, this make me angry! I am seething! I swear, I'm about to start breaking shit. AAAAAUGH!!!!
Doomsday, get my gun.
My favorite Voyager was the episode where they make a warp drive out of coconuts.
Spoiler warning.
Better? You call this better? Because I live in a TV-backwater, I just got to see the last episode of season three, which I had been led to believe was one of the good ones. What I got was a cliff hanger with time travel and Nazis. Please. All we're missing now is that they introduce a little kid...
I'm sorry, they screwed around with the background story too much in the first two episodes for me to be interested. So far, it is more fun to watch Buffy reruns. No Nazis, no time travel, and when they introduced a little kid, it wasn't a little kid at all.
They used to rub the bald head for luck. Sheesh, don't you ever watch the outtakes?!?
so 150 or so ppl showed up and 20 million or so trek fans stayed away. i'd say it was a victory for
killenterprise.com

Wow, they are suckers. I got my "Denny's" shirt for free.
Wishing I was a millionaire since 1969.
Yet the idea of 7of9 in a coconut bra intrigues me.
