From the aforementioned URL ;<br /><br /><i>There can no longer be any doubt that the aggressive conduct of the Klingon Empire is irredentist in nature, its purpose to spread its sphere of influence beyond the Neutral Zone.

To me, the Klingons are the Russians, the Romulans are the Chinese... Who are the Cardassians? France? <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font size="1">I put on my robe and wizard hat...</font> </div>

Well, I thought it was just a hoot that the NRO was doing a Star Trek day. But a really interesting conversation has developed from it. Way cool. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>
