Hey, guys, this thread has been going on for quite a while, and taking up a 
lot of space in the newsgroup - I see it's crossposted to sci.physics, and 
rec.arts.startrek.tech, which seems to me like the proper place for it.  
How about trimming out rec.arts.startrek.current, 
alt.tv.star-trek.voyager, alt.tv.star-trek.ds9 and other non-technical 
newsgroups?
