In "Pathfinder" It establishes that Voyager crusing speed is Warp 6.2 and that during a "year" the ship without any leaps(slipstream,transwarp,Kes) travels 438 light years. According to my calculations I calculate it to be nearer 500 light years a year.

You know, Darkstar, no one's likely to believe your "calculations" unless you tell us how you arrived at your conclusion. Otherwise you're just saying, "OK, well, the show says this, but THIS is the truth," with not an explaination in sight. No one's going to listen to something like that unless you've got a darned good reason behind it.

'Course, the fact that many of targetemployee's posts read pretty much the same is neither here nor there. . .

On a completely unrelated note....if you threw the actual Voyager model off a cliff....it would be interesting to see exactly how fast it would go and how it would land.

Heck, you could even film it...I'd definitely like to see that...purely from a physics and science point of view of course.

Nor is it really relevant, so... why are you bringing it up?

Sorry, don't mean to say anything against the guy, it's just that one or two of his posts had the same kinda, how to put this, absolute no-argument tone about them. But of course young Darkie's a newbie, and target is one of the old hands. Just seems a mite unfair is all.
