I missed the episode "The Reckoning" when it first aired, and dispite the series being in syndication for a year after the run ended, I only got to watch the episode for the first time last week when I bought to DVD set of Ebay.

Good episode and it was great to actually see a "new" episode of my favorite Trek series after so long.

"...unless you happen to have some sort of uber-TV with 6,000 channels."

I thought Americans always prided themselves on having seven billion TV channels available even in the remotest middles of nowhere? B)

Seven billion channels only means there might be ten worthwhile things to watch a day.
Hell, between spanish channels, shopping channels and religous channels, theres only about 100 channels nationwide.

I get about 200 or so channels through a satellite dish, but a bunch of those are movie channels, specialty channels, PPV, and only about 50 or so are channels that air normal (i.e. current) shows and some of those are just different timezone locales of the same station.

That's not much different than the digital satellite system I've got. And our answer to FOX (being Sky One), managed to show at least 5 billion episodes of Trek a year. The final two seasons of DS9 were on nightly for the last couple of months.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

If I had $60... I'd probably save it because that would be enough for gas for the next three weeks until I get more work in.

I want a fuel-cell car that runs on water...

And no... in this area of the country they haven't shown a DS9 episode in over two years. It used to be on early morning Sunday, however that was before I got a VCR.

You only got a VCR in the past two years? Are you living in 1984?

Yes.

Have you been missing your pills recently? You've become very odd.
