    I agree Captain. That would be illogical.

    Mind you, things are pretty butcherish in Cambridgeshire right now.

    btw, the name of that episode is devil in the dark. that episode caused jim and spock to have a rl dispute which lasted months--it was right after kirk's rl dad died. i am not actually a trek dictionary, i just watched their documentary mind meld ;p

    ok punk, i have pressured you too much it seems. there is always the easier way of doing things,copy paste works also. sometimes may need to paste drop it into a windows notepad then re copy and paste it into your document.

    I was just thinking about the "Horta" last night, and here you posted a picture of her! The Horta was one of my favorite Star Trek creatures. At first she was misunderstood. She didn't want to hurt anyone, she was only trying to protect her eggs.

    She definitely wasn't the purtiest thing though...

    now that we have turned this into a star trek thread, i have found a discrepancy in the history. it says kirk's dad (joseph shatner) died in 1968, but it says that devil in the dark aired in 1967(march)...and yet it says that kirk's dad died during the filming of devil in the dark.

    Regarding the shunning, it doesn't bother me as much if/when an active JW does it to me, because they are directed to do it by the rules of the Watchtower. But, if an Ex-JW were to ever shun me after I take the time to offer them a kind word, praise, and positive reinforcement and had no previous negative "Run-ins" with them, it would give me a WTF moment as I would think of what I could have ever done to deserve such negative treatment, especially when the person who was doing the shunning knows exactly how bad and insecure it makes one feel, having been shunned themselves.

    CptKirk, thanks for the trip down memory lane with Star Trek. It was fun reading the posts between you and the OP about that particular episode.
