[QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [QB] OK, so. Ignoring [i]Enterprise[/i] makes things simpler, if not really clearer. Worf says they didn't have phasers in the 22nd century. So they were invented sometime in or after 2200 (or 2201 if you want to be really Tim-like). Then, it just comes down to whatever you think the Laser Pistols were - or represented - in their three appearances. They didn't look or act like lasers, so maybe they weren't and it was just a name given to them, maybe they were really phasers (or phaser-ish) in which case you can say "phasers were introduced sometime between 2200 (or 2201) and 2255." Or maybe they were lasers (or laser-ish) and therefore phasers were new in TOS proper, first appearing in bulky rifle form only around 2265. So you can say "phasers were introduced in 2260 (plus or minus 5 years)." End of story. Take us out of orbit, Mr. Su- wait, aren't you a botanist? [/QB][/QUOTE]
