[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] [QUOTE]We only see and hear of the aftermath, we don't know how things went down at the time. I'm sure there are a lot of Humans that were assimilated before Wolf 359.[/QUOTE]Oh, of course there were! Aside from the Raven itself :rolleyes: *sigh* ...ahem... there's also the probability that other Starfleet ships ran into the Borg by random chance, and were promptly assimilated. I believe that Voyager once showed an assimilated individual (or was it a personality, in "Infinite Regress"?) from the USS Tombaugh, that was apparently assimilated back in 2362. I have no problem with a few random starships getting swallowed up by the Borg because of bad luck. However, I really dislike the idea of any sort of consistent activity over the long run. After all, in his opening Captain's Log for "First Contact," Picard said that the Borg had RETURNED. They can't return if they never left in the first place, which is exactly the scenario that some people here are proposing. Besides, Picard was clearly overstating his case for Lily, because she couldn't contradict him if he exaggerated. And since both Jouret IV and Ivor Prime were assimilated, that most definitely falls under the category of "worlds," the plural form of "world." Combine that with the statement that Starfleet was originally intercepting the FC cube way out in the Typhon Sector and ended up barely stopping the ship in Earth orbit, I'd call that "falling back." So I don't see any problem with Picard's statements. :p [/QB][/QUOTE]
