[QUOTE="RedShirtNo5, post: 1872574, member: 173"] Hey, this reminds me of a recent disccusion in 10 Forward. Guinan was saying that there were some books by a former captain of the Enterprise that were just horrible. Then Barclay commented that he recently got a holodeck program featuring this ex-captain in some lawyer-simulation. Well, Worf said that he had started that holoprogram, but hated it so much he decided to kill the lawyers with a batleth! Wow, you should have seen the argument that started between Data and Troi! Deana was arguing that the whole reason for holoprograms was to learn from the interaction of the simulated characters, and you couldn't really evaluate a holoprogram until you had run it five or six times to understand who the characters were and how the plot developed. Data said that what he wanted in a hologrom was attention to detail in the simulation, and he could calculate with 97.64% accuracy the likelihood that he would enjoy a holoprogram after just three minutes. Honestly, I wasn't sure who I agreed with. But then we got trapped in a temporal loop, and I had to listen to the same argument AND get killed in a warp core breach SIX TIMES! Finally that was fixed, and I was going to mention that Iron Tower really was worse than Sword of Shanara, and that the Death Gate series was pretty bad, but that no bad book was really on par with the pain inflicted by those flying pizza slices from Deneva. But I never got to a chance to speak, since I got turned into a styrofoam dodecahedron and crushed into powder by some dudes from the Andromeda galaxy. Just my luck. -RedShirt [/QUOTE]
