[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Ah, but 11 years prior to [i]when[/i] exactly? We still dont know when that "now" moment in Kirk's happy dreamspace was. That scene is more odd because it references property ownership- how exactly would that work in a society without money? And on DS9 (which I was watching again from the start) Jake (in [i]Explorers[/i]) mentions "a month's supply of transporter credits"- so it seems that, despite unlimited energy and no monetary system, there is some give and take. Regarding the whole "Five Year Mission" thing, that was never established as some standard operating procedure- taht's just sorta assumed because it makes the convoluted timeline mesh with the series. Sort of. I think it likely that the "Five year Mission" was due more to the Enterprise's maximum mission time between refits and major repairs- and that ship took a pounding! Less of a pounding than the Constelation or Intrepid, but still...and then there's stuff like crew promotions. Otherwise yo have a ship full of Harry Kim's- poor losers that do everything right and never get promoted, only to return home and find all the bozos from his class that played it safe on some starbase now outrank him several times over.
