[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] We've already ranted about the actual use of the cloaking device vis a vis "Balance of Terror" long enough... so I'll leave that part alone. ;) I'm no scientist, but wouldn't the very nature of a cloaking device mean that there shouldn't be any "quantum emissions" lying around for Archer's fancy doodad to pick up in the first place? I'm most curious about Reed's mention of a Royal Navy in which his great-uncle served. If we're generous and assume 35 years between generations, that would still mean that Reed's relative was living in a yellow submarine (or a grey one) around 2080 -- thirty years after World War III. I suppose it's possible that some of the national militaries could be resurrected... but does that really make much sense in a post-First Contact society? [/QB][/QUOTE]
