[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] It might be safe to say that money goes out not by disappearing from the face of earth all at once, but by gradually mutating to or spawning new forms. Which, come to think of it, is more or less what happened to the dinosaurs. The Kirk era meanings of "to pay", "to be paid", "to cost", "to buy", "to sell" might be incomprehensible to the 21st century audience. Kirk in turn might not understand the concept of paying for food, even if he pays for those antique firearms on the walls of his nice apartment. "Next you claim you pay for electricity, too?" The Archer era would have concepts more familiar to us, but still on their way to mutating into something weird. And people gallivanting around in a starship would be the last to learn about those developments, of course. Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
