Yeah. It's kind of obvious. I have Multiple Sclerosis, and my neurologist has advised me to avoid any heavy physical activity that might raise body tempature. Moving around a bunch of heavy servers would be ill advised for anyone with MS. Why the researchers are studying that particular question is beyond me.

No kidding. What's the deal here. Kirk? Grew up in Iowa or something. Original Enterprise crew? Some Americans, a Russian, an Asian and a Scott.

Australians? I think there was one episode in TOS where a doomed red shirt looked like he might be Australian, but that was about it.

And despite being relatively new to the Federation, they decide to place their headquarters on Earth. Did they pick Sydney? No. They picked San Francisco, USA.

So why the heck do Australians get to see this movie first? Star Trek has nothing to do Australia.

All this means is that the first cam torrents to come out the day before the rest of the world's opening will be from a guy sitting behind some bloke who shouts out "Crike! 'ats some bloody good special effects!" every five minutes.

With states like North Korea and Iran actively pursuing nuclear technology, can the US, Russia and the other nuclear states afford to lose their deterrence? It seems that states like Pakistan that are potentially fragile are also on the list of potential threats.

If only there was a country out there that was big enough and strong enough to impose their will onto these smaller countries in the name of 'world stability', using their own massive military and intelligence resources . . . oh wait. That didn't work.
