Hey Eric!
Thanks for posting.
Like Nextceo, I'm a fan of both TOS and TNS. But I also understand and respect your point of view, even though I don't share it. And if I had spent 20 years hoping & fighting for a continuation of the original series, only for it to be scuppered just as it was on the brink of happening, to be replaced by a reimaged version that was an insult to what you loved. I think myself, and anybody else would feel the same way you do.
Eric, you said you needed to get this off your chest. I know you have been at the point of walking away from this place a few times recently, but I hope this means you have decided to stay. Your posts are always interesting, and the Fleets would be a much poorer place without your input and company.
