[QUOTE]Originally posted by Woodside Kid: [QB] [QUOTE] It really seems that the writer thought of Kor as being no more than 120 years old. So maybe he was 17 or so when he met Kirk at Organia, his greatest achievements still to come. In his own words, being a military governor was a bad position, and as far as we can tell, he didn't even have his own ship. If he'd scored a major victory once, then fallen out of favor, it would've been a while ago when he'd be too young, even for the possibly fast-aging Klingons. [/QUOTE] I'm sorry, Phelps, but I don't think that makes sense. Military governor may not be a position where you can wallow in glory, but you still wouldn't put a wet-behind-the-ears kid in charge of a strategic outpost (Organia must have [i]some[/i] strategic value, else why would the Federation and the Empire both be interested in it?). Starfleet could always send an invasion force to Organia, and then what kind of battle experience is the rookie going to fall back on for his defense? Besides, by that logic, what is the Enterprise doing there? Starfleet obviously felt the situation warranted sending an experienced crew and a top-of-the-line heavy cruiser, not some junior officer in a less powerful vessel. I think its safe to assume the Empire would have a similar level of concern. [/QB][/QUOTE]
