[QUOTE]Originally posted by Joshua Bell: [QB] Hmmm, thinking along the plateau thing, another idea. One that'll make Roddenberry roll over in his grave. Notice how we only ever see technological development involving our favorite crew? Perhaps the effectively communal "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs" Federation is effectively stagnant. Those Starfleet engineers back on earth couldn't ever come up with anything more than the NX-01 and by the 24rd Century could hardly join two boards together without a *self-sealing* stem-bolt. The average, and even above average Federation citizen just can't be bothered to turn on the creative or logical parts of their brain in the morning. It takes throwing these crews out into the unknown to develop any new technologies. And once they're brought back, the dulled minds of the Federation can't make heads or tails of the new gizmos. It would explain why we will almost never have a major technological innovation in the Star Trek universe without a camera rolling. [/QB][/QUOTE]
