But I do think that parts of the Collective are in fact separated from the main whole more than others, at least temporarily. Cubes on distant assignments, for example. The volume of communication could diminish in such situations, even if there wasn't a total loss of contact. <br /><br />I guess the Borg might decide to incarnate a Queen or two aboard a Cube if they knew it was soon going to loiter outside comm range. The Queen would then give the separated sub-Collective some extra initiative and control. When the Cube reported back, the information and experiences gained would be dumped back to the greater Collective for everybody to share. The Queen incarnations could be either dismantled and put into storage, or turned into ordinary Drones.<br /><br />When the Queen incarnates into a body, I doubt a new individual is created. Nor does an aphysical Queen entity move entirely into this physical body. She just deposits a copy of herself, or a minor subcomponent of herself (or just a copy of a subcomponent) into the body, and simultaneously continues her aphysical existence in the larger Collective. The Queen could have a billion bodies simultaneously all across the galaxy, and perhaps lose them all in battle, and still she wouldn't be diminished.<br /><br />IMHO. And I think the Queen could have two kinds of roles in the Collective, and I don't know which is more plausible:<br /><br />1) Like the Queen of an ant hive, she could be the lowest of the slaves. An ant Queen is basically just an egg-laying slave; a Borg Queen could be the independent-thought, local-control slave, forced into that type of labor when needed. The Collective mind would be her true boss.<br /><br />2)OTOH, she could be a supreme lifeform that lives through the bodies and minds of the Collective and its Drones. When she incarnates into a physical body, we only see a minor part of her splendor. The Collective mind is where she dwells - she's a galaxy-spanning lifeform, which is why her incarnations can claim "I *am* the Borg". The Borg are her true body.<br /><br />Timo Saloniemi <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>OnToMars</b> <br /><small>Member # 621</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2002,2,7,10,24,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">March 07, 2002</span> <span class="timeformat-0">10:24 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> I seem to recall this debate before. I'll offer my example again, and hopefully this time it won't spin off into a debate on the probability of the existence of multiple dimensions.<br /><br />There are physicists who claim that there is a fifth dimension, dubbed hyperspace. Though we might be able to verify it exists through mathematics, we can't visualize it, because our brains aren't built to. If we were to travel into the fifth dimension, we would be unable to see it in its entirety. All we could see would be three dimensional blobs that wouldn't make sense or appear to have any order (though in fact they do).<br /><br />This can be demonstrated through a clearer analogy. Take a 2D creature who has no concept of the third dimension. It understands circles, but can't visualize spheres. The best the 2D creature could hope to understand is that a sphere is collection of circles.<br /><br />****ANALOGY ENDS - HERE LIES THE ACTUAL TALK ABOUT THE BORG****<br /><br />We as individuals, are unable to visualize the true scope of the Collective. We don't have collective minds, thus we can't understand that aspect of their existence. We can, however, observe the three dimensional pieces of the Borg, namely the drones. When the Queen talked about her existence, we truly are incapable of understanding the relationship. Because the relationship lies in an aspect of the Collective that we can never hope to comprehend, or at least, visualize.<br /><br />Lack of knowledge is fear. Inability to know is terror.

The use of multiple Queens is like to routers/hubs in a system. Heirarchally, it makes sense to have one relay to the collective mind, rather than everybody meshed together. So, though they say that they are "collective", not all of the data is necessarily shared. That would be wasteful, and thus unnecessary.<br /><br />Why they chose the species she is? They probably like to keep things continuous (Though we see two different Borg Queens as actors, they looked/acted similar). Maybe the main Borg Queen (the server, per s�) is of that species, and all the subordinate "Queen"s are clones, like Weyoun (Did I spell that right?). Does this make any sense, or am I just too drunk to fish? <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
