Default Finally, Some Common Sense

I read this article over at the Skiffy Outhouse and this writer pretty much states things right on target.

Check the URL for the entire post:

https://www.scifi.com/mbb/browse.php?aid=4959


It's a shame that TPTB didn't hire this person. He or she evidently knows how to reach out to a fanbase. This person could have helped Skiffy get quite a few more viewers than the dozen or so that they will having watching the Mini. But then, who are we to question the immeasurable wisdom of the Hammer/Eick/Moore Hydra?

That article was very well though out. Individuals like this, who have a sense of TOS history and a respect for the original story, characters, and fanbase, would have made a very positive impact on the new production.

Default I agree

--- this guy said it all and very well.

No hostility. No calling names. No anger. Just a well-thought-out note that stated what we all would've liked to say.

This shows and illustrates EXACTLY what we are trying to say! And HOW it SHOULD be said.

We need more posts like this both here and across the web!
