Remember the days
When boldly we’d go
Where none before us had ventured
With Kirk to captain us
And Spock as First Officer
With Chief Med – now what was his name?
McCoy, that’s right, the real one!
And Scotty – Montgomery – a dab hand with warp-drives
Oh, only a warp drive – did we never dive through wormholes?
Did space not fold, back in the day?
Did entangling photons not speed us
On USS Enterprise?

And did every alien on every planet in the universe really speak clear American English? A classic example of getting people to suspend belief!

I know. Incredible. At least with Hitchhikers Guide they had a fish to put in their ear that did all the translating!

Wouldn’t that be handy! But wait…I’ve seen how translation programmes actually work. 😦

In this universe, in this space-time continuum. But who knows how it could be elsewhere?

You know, when I first saw it I struggled to do that finger-thing. Now it’s the only kind of finger-thing I can do.
