But since i happen to see your name while reading through the conference. That i thought i just get your attention here. I just like to know if you know ho James Dixon is. If you are aware of him, i like to say a few things without getting into trouble. I am not here to pick a fight with you. If you don't know who James Dixon is, that is great. Since at this present time i think e got a rawl deal with other moderators of trek conferences. And i sure like o help him be able to communicate again about trek. If you do know about him and heared things from other fidonet moderators of other trek conferences, that i urge you to hear me out. Since i know the real James Dixon and he is a great trek fan, and a good friend. I don't know him in person but i talk to him a lot on another bbs system. And for what i have seen is that he is nothing what other people said about him. And i think he got a rawl deal where he lost access to many other trek conferences under Fidonet. And i just think e would be happy again if he was able to talk again with other trek fans. And this conference here opens the door for him. If you havn't been involved ith the entire incident with other trek conference moderators. That James Dixon got my vote of confidence to be another great trek fan expressing his houghts with others about star trek. And i just hope you will allow him to enjoy this fine conference. Since at this point he needs something positive in his life and i think this conference is it. I sure like to see how he reacts when he is happy again to talk trek with trek fans. And i assure you that you would be surprised that he is a good person and not a bad one. ...

I know that Kes fans might not be happy for me to say this. But i truly think if he is not happy with the show, leave it. Since i like the new character that we will be introduced without the borg implants next weeks episode. I think this new young woman is even hotter than Kes and be a bigger fan favorite since she was like Picard a informant of the borg. I think if you seen Kes's name on the list of credits. It's probably to fool you, thinking that maybe it is someone else leaving the show. But i am sure it will be Kes. ...

To tell you the truth, i think it was ok. I don't really know how to rate it. I will admit though that i did enjoy watching the episode. I think it opened up a few more doors bout the borg and that we now can negoiate with them if they were backed up in a corner. But doesn't that make us think that the borg are now a much weaker enemy that we first thought? Since now we know if they are backed up in a corner they would do anything like allying with the crew of Voyager because they had a way to built a powerful weapon. This means that the borg are not as invisible as we first thought. I also think after seeing the new aliens that the borg ships are not as impressive as they once were. The only thing that is impressive about the borg is the size of their space. And the billions of borg that exist all over that space in ships and on planets. I guess history was made for Captain Janeway which for Janeways fans would make them all happy. Now knowing that Captain Janeway must have been the first, because i don't remember Captain Picard negoiating anything with the borg. So Janeway appears to be the first one to negoiate and have an alliance with the borg. Of course the borg did break the alliance later. ut that doesn't mean they were only in it for the solution to a problem they created. Which brings up another thing. I thought this new alien race were looking for a fight, for conquest of the galaxy. Thinking they were so powerful that they can conquer anything they face. But now i learn from this season premiere that the borg were responsible for starting a war with a race of aliens that had the ability to fight back and win battles against the org. The only sad thing now is that since Janeway helped the borg to defeat or be able to fight the new alien race. That what it means is that the borg can now defend themselves against this new race. Because once you are able to develop a weapon to fight them. They pretty much have a even battle ground. I really doubt we will be hearing much from the new aliens for a long time. I don't think those aliens will appear in any future STTNG movie or DS9 episode. Not to mention Voyager too. But who knows. One thing is for sure is that this premiere even though it was one hour with a rerun for the first hour of the season finale of Voyager. The hour itself was well worth it. I wouldn't say right now that this was the best episode i see of Voyager. But i am sure it was one of the good ones out of some others that i enjoyed watching. Now the last thing i wanted to bring up was that i am sure that Voyager is not out of borg space. That they still have to find a way out of it without being destoryed by the borg. So i assume hat a few future new episodes of a new season will show them to be in borg space. If anyone else that reads this after seeing the premiere, feel free to speak your thoughts since i like to hear them. I am sure we will talk about this for quite some time. As far as next weeks episode. I look forward to seeing more of our new young woman who is now a new addition to the crew as a human being. And as for Kes, i been hearing that she will be moving on to a new place where she be leaving the show forever. I will miss Kes since she seemed to fit well on the show. But i was not happy to hear that she was unhappy with the show. So for her to leave and be replaced with a new person doesn't bother me at all. I look forward to see how this new character will fit in with the voyager crew. ...
