[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] To switch gears a little, I call into question the notion that a perception of Starfleet's invulnerability had anything to do with the episode's success. Just two years earlier the whole organization had been infiltrated from top to bottom by intelligent cockroaches. And how often have Star Trek stories, or for that matter almost any story, in or out of science fiction, been resolved by large organizations working as designed? Consider that the original series, as far as I can recall without doing any research, never mentioned another Federation ship that wasn't destroyed, missing, or otherwise in distress, and if you actually saw one it was a sure sign that everyone aboard had died unpleasantly, or was about to. (The sole exception that I can think of being the commodore's ship in "The Ultimate Computer," but he made up for it by losing half of his taskforce.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
