Well, it was on TV last Tuesday night - but I didn't get around to watch it until late last night, when I could sit, relax - not be disturbed and have a snack.

GOOD episode... Enterprise really blossomed after "Cold Front" and "Dear Doctor".

That final scene was very eerie. Some of those blown out buildings looked very... "Ground Zero" - deliberate? Probably wouldn't have had the same 'shock' value if shown pre Sep. 11.

That armory guy that was helping Malcolm looked familiar. I hope this is a new recurring role. I hope we don't just get another Voyager with Crewman Cutler = Samanth Wildman.

Just a little something - I know there was talk of it when it first came out in the US, but that little display from Daniel's quarters...

15 different Klingon ships? They all looked the same to me.

I spotted, Defiant (twice) class, Nova/Pathfinder/Rhode Island (twice), Intrepid class, Excelsior Class (twice), NX class, Akira Class (it was different to the NX class. The Suliban stealth ship.

There was a little lined logo that appeared a few times. Then I noticed it appeared again behind Silik... the Symbol of the Suliban and/or Kabal?

Oh and 'future guy' looks VERY Romulan... but I noticed a little feature of his 'uniform'... his pants are similar to a Starfleet Uniform - i.e. over the boots with the black strap from the pants running under the boots.

He could be a Vulcan in Starfleet uniform? He could be a Future Soval!?!

In "Shockwave, I"??? Where?

This is Enterprise...set BEFORE the rest of everything...what were Defiant, Intrepid, Excelsior, etc. doing there?

Please refresh my memory.

When they are looking through Daniels' stuff to find information, schematics of these ships appear in the holographic display.

Maybe it's just me, but the "similarity" didn't affect me at all. It didn't even occur to me.

I have to agree with Tim. The 20th century, I'm afraid, has more than enough in the way of bombed out cityscapes for us to draw on.

Yeah - but not all bombed out buildings look like the remnants of the WTC. With the verticle tightly spaceced upright girders with each floor only leaving a small space for windows. Not all of the building remnants in that Matte painting were WTC-esque... just some of the fore-ground ones... I wonder if it was deliberate - or it was just a type of 'structure' the animators happened to draw apon... either consciously or unconsciously.

Yeah, but those were in other countries, and therefore not as important.

I see, so this is somehow our fault, despite the fact that Andrew is from Australia. Gotcha.

Yes. I suspect Simon's off his feed. No matter, the vet's coming round to see him later. 8)
