[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Guardian 2000: I was providing a hypothetical inverse of your position to demonstrate that it was not valid. [/QUOTE]Maybe I'm just stupid, but I have no idea what you're talking about. [QUOTE]I don't know enough about the literature to contest this point, but there are many who disagree. There are references to Section 31's Control AI created by David Mack prior to Discovery, for example, and the general tone and feel of things.[/QUOTE]So here's where the confusion lies. Earlier you made it sound like Kurtzman had made [i]all[/i] the novels canon, when in fact you're only referring to DSC and PIC novels, of which you haven't even read yourself and yet seem to feel you have the authority to argue that they contain things that have been incorporated into the show's canon. See next. [QUOTE]But again, even if they're not extremely successful at active incorporation, that doesn't negate the fact that the non-canon informs their thinking *by design*, or that it is canon to them *by decree*. As noted previously, if we reverse the situation and have active incorporation without the decree, the canon policy is not changed thereby. Thus, even if the claim of zero incorporation were true, it is not relevant. [/QUOTE]I don't think that's how it works. In your example of Control, I'm pretty sure the idea of it came from the scriptwriters, and then the novel authors incorporated it into their books, not vice-versa. [/QB][/QUOTE]
