Another good element of this episode is that B'Elanna Torres figures out the shuttle logs were tampered with. It is pretty good continuity to demonstrate her brilliance. I wonder if Jeri Taylor had something to do with that.

What Tim Russ does well is avoiding showing his hand at all until the plot development makes it obvious he is behind it. He stays in Tuvok's character very well. This is just further evidence that the writers should have given us more Tuvok episodes.

Neelix is rather dismissive of Kes. I am the first person to defend Neelix against haters, but he does not represent himself very well here. @allstartrek

"She was a *buffer for me"
Michael Cumpsty seems like a pretty good actor for how little screen time he ended up getting.

It doesn't seem his career went very far. Maybe he stayed longer in local theatre.

I love seeing Janeway throw herself into a holopgram. It would have nice to have seen that more often.

What is best about a rewatch is knowing that little-station-that-could in those early episodes is going to change the galaxy.

FYI: For those if you that do not know, both Verso Books and Haymarket Books have a program that for $10 a month you get all new eBooks free. They both start you out with a bunch of eBooks. I just enrolled in both of the programs last month and so far I have 31 new eBooks total.

Season 5's Captain Rayner Ran His Ship Like a Pirate

"Like, say Battlestar, when I started on that I had no idea where that one was gonna go. Discovery was already very established, but I actually didn't let any of that into my [head], because I went, 'That's not gonna help.' So, I didn’t. Now, I'm feeling the world of it. Now, I'm sensing what the world of Discovery is and how many people love it, and how it fits."

What needs continuous use of cooperative interdependent imagination in order to maintain its existence? (can be a type of environment, artifact, organization or anything tangible)

@impactology I've thought a lot about that and I used to think that holistic education reform would establish this within a few short generations, but I no longer believe that. Such transformative cooperation requires significant cultural, ethical, and perhaps even ontological change that must be coordinated on a collective scale. I think it would require an individual who could inspire the dominoes to fall in the right place.

@impactology I like where you are going with locating an imaginative experience. That may have more potential than my goal. My goal was to create an environment of nature and nurture where there is no more violence in the world. I think you should be spreading your ideas beyond social media.

There is an interesting album coming out tomorrow. I have more Shostakovich albums than I know what to do with, but I am interested in hearing more of the Carducci String Quartet (elsewhere simply titled, Carducci Quartet). It is his String Quartets Nos. 9 & 15

What kind of high-school experience did you have? Were you in a clique? Were you popular, unpopular, the coolest kid in your Homeschool? Did you have a sweet jean jacket with patches, or maybe a leather vest? Were you an evil villain or a Mary Sue?

@RickiTarr Once when I spent the day in suspension a semi-associate not-really-a-friend did you know what in his shorts while never moving from his desk.

And I have a cover for my forthcoming book! Due out in July from the University of Chicago Press. If you just want an e-copy, though, don't pre-order -- it will be available to download for free,

@cepaea I'll buy the eBook.

Sometimes the best stories need time to set up.

Many great novels don’t kick into high gear until at least page 50.

Some of the best television I’ve ever seen didn’t hit its stride until the second season.

Incredible films are built upon a third act.

Often, patience pays off. W
