[QUOTE]Originally posted by Balaam Xumucane: [QB] Well, exactly, it was a nice reflection, I don't think we're claiming that if it weren't for Star Trek we'd still have segregated water fountains. But I do think that it did play a role in changing the way that a lot of people looked at the issue. And I mean it's not like we saw a huge number of colorful (or female or even non-human) captains, admirals, commodores, amigas, generals or whatehaveyou, but they did make the extra effort and take a chance. And as such I think it (and Gene) deserve some kudos. And so if a Star Trek series were to feature an openly gay and unpersecuted character it might be a fitting tribute to the original. I'm not going to hold my breath, though. [/QB][/QUOTE]
