[QUOTE="glass, post: 8989482, member: 12251"] I liked it too, and so I am assuming did quite a lot of people did too or they would likely not have made seasons 2 and 3. People who disliked season 1 (and/or 2) tend to be very loud about it, but don't mistake noise for majority. To me, that's what makes them such great villains! I was a bit concerned that the section 31 series would make them the heroes, but that does not seem to be happening at all now so that's a relief. I consider myself a DS9 fan, and I am not sure who you are referring to. Sisko? Rom? [I]EDIT: It's Morn, isn't it? Just make sure its not a speaking part, there are only two epsiodes left![/I] [I]Voyager[/I] had it be a fact, but did not explain why. Picard stated that it was a deliberate design decision rather than a bizarre engineering oversight. That was suggested by Ben Sisko's father IIRC as a way they could get around the blood screenings. I do not believe it was ever explicitly confirmed that that was actually how they did it, but given some of the long-term infiltrations that were eventually revealed they must have had a way. Geordie was wrong - we have known since TNG that Data can kill when the situation warrants it. And when a hostile group has taken over your ship and is threatening to murder the whole crew (and has demonstrated herself willing and able to carry out the threat on some crew members already), the situation warrants it! Also, they did not have control of the whole ship, yet. And most of those things you mention as alternatives would not have worked against changelings at all, and those that might would have been less reliable than what they did do. Even if that had access to all those other systems, which is by no means a given. Leaving a heavily-armed ship like that lying around for whoever happens to come looking, even with the engines disabled, is just asking for trouble. Much safer for all concerned to blow the thing to hell. [/QUOTE]
