Is it civilized to force someone who has no means of supporting a child, and is in fact opposed to having one to do so? Is it moral to allow a child to be born into such circumstances?
Should have told him yes you are a hacker AND a spy working for the KGB and now that Operation Fukovalotta Dosvedanya was underway, ALL the world's infomatrix compuboxen are belong to MOTHER RUSSIA! MWAHAHAHAHA!
How many teachers have you had in your life? Now how many GOOD teachers have you had? Personally, I couldn't even count total, but only 4 or 5 were worth a shit.
I've found it to be an axiom over my 30 years that whenever you think someone can't possibly be that stupid, someone else comes along who is far, far stupider.
actually Berman and Braga had written the ep a year before when they thought they were going to get canceled after 3rd season. If you look at it in that context and completely disregard all the character development and general awesomeness of the 4th season, it almost kind of fits. But no, as it was it became the biggest disgrace in Star Trek history.
the joke goes like this: "Think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are stupider than that." Yet another nugget of wisdom from good ol' uncle George.
I was going to go on a diatribe about how sound and RF are two completely different things, that sound doesn't travel through space and you can't "hear" RF, but there's no point.
How about "agrees with copyright in principle but thinks current laws and implementation are unjust"? The definition of copyright has been corrupted by unethical profiteers from it's original meaning, literally, the right to copy, held only by the originator of the work and disseminated at his pleasure, into this impenetrable fortress of legalese designed to create indefinite monopolies of products, squash competition, and persecute otherwise law-abiding people. I would hope intelligent, well-informed, critically thinking people would be able to see that. Too bad we don't have any.
Note that whatever my feelings are, I don't agree with Fox's tactics - if you want to stop it, do it at the start. Don't let them make a film for megabucks, then say "Uhh, we think we might still have a copyright on that or something.". That's just bad form.
Dude, this is Fox we're talking about. Bad form is their business model.
retard, take a look at federal budget breakdown sometime, NASA gets a whopping 0.6% this year. money hole? shit with all that money we could pay for another 15 minutes in Iraq.

24: The Next Generation. Fantastic.
troll, eh? what's the matter, mods? failure to slather praise all over your favorite soap opera and actually have an opinion make you uncomfortable?
I'm with you dude, that last ep was an abomination and needs to be expunged from the timeline

but my dads point was that being young lasts longer than it once did.
Someone mod this up, that's elegantly stated and brilliant.
I messed around with radios a bit when I was kid, that was fun. I always wanted to build my own radio telescope.
I was going to go on a diatribe about how sound and RF are two completely different things, that sound doesn't travel through space and you can't "hear" RF, but there's no point.
...as the radio frequencies are actually in the audio range.
What?
Never mind, you're clearly an idiot.
