Welcome

As the name implies, this blog is my way of sharing my criticisms (and praises) of Star Trek with whomever may find them interesting (all four of you). I'm what you may call an original Trekkie (I refuse to call myself a "Trekker"...but that's a subject for another posting lol), and the Original Series is my first love in Trek. I got into Trek pre-TNG, waaay back in '86. So in my humble opinion, the adventures of Captain Kirk and crew are the first and best Trek, period.

Virtually everything that forms my worldview will, I'm sure, find it's way into this. I plan on talking about the science and technology of Star Trek, the philosophy and ethics, economics, religion, just about every aspect of Star Trek's portrayal of the future that one can think of. Not to mention the fans themselves!

It's my hope that at least a few people will find this interesting enough to check out, so that it doesn't become nothing more than an online argument (or agreement) between myself and my friends. I'm sure there are about 1,572,968 Star Trek blogs and websites out there, so why read this one? Well, I hope that my take on the show and it's portrayal of the future will have a different tone than most sites out there, and that even if I'm not agreed with, then at least my rantings will inspire thought and discussion. I'm going to try to post at least once a week. Welcome and I hope you enjoy it.
