[QUOTE]Originally posted by The_Tom: [QB] While I'm a little irritated myself about the 4 days reference because it doesn't give the series the "feel" of being humanity fearfully beginning to take steps across huuuuge gulfs, it's simply the return of "plot device drive" that expands to fit the geography. No Trek series has ever religiously kept to a distance travelled = time expended system anyway, so it's an unrealistic expectation to expect the math to line up. Perhaps we should consider going back to the old idea of warp factors as they were envisioned in TOS, that is to say, convenient ways of expressing speed without putting it in real-world terms. Paying less attention to the warp factor X = Y times c mentality and thinking more like the kiloquad = undefined computing power might allow us to reduce our expectations of the writers to a level that reflects dramatic realities.
