[QUOTE]Originally posted by The_Tom: [QB] Firstly, yes Bernd, that's probably the closest we've got thus far to a legitimate continuity error. As everyone's proven above me, it's a fairly easy exercise, however, to rationalize it out and make it work. "200 years ago" could indeed have been more like 225. The flight out to Moab IV (which was pretty out-of-the-way in the 24th century) could have taken 15 years using wimpy warp-2 capable ships. That puts their departure in 2128, which could easily be before the invention of a cargo-only transporter by some Vulcan researcher, which will later be refined for biological use. What I find more intersting is that no member of the collective intelligence-gathering network of Star Trek geekdom could present this info until now, three or four months after we've known that the show would have transporters. Let's face it, this implied early limit on transporter development from "The Masterpiece Society" is so obscure that Okuda could never be expected to note that. When it takes four months for fandom to do their worst to find a continuity error, how the hell can anyone lay any blame on the producers for "missing" this with a straight face? [/QB][/QUOTE]
