Noryungi writes "Hot on the heels of Despair dot com, here comes... the Star Trek Inspirational Posters!. Imagine a mind-meld of Mr Spock, Despair's demotivational attitude and the Linux Distro Parodies, and you have one heck of a funny site. If you are a true Trekkie, don't click on the link, as this is certainly going to offend you..."

Who needs posters? In memoriam James Doohan. The longest surviving "Red Shirt" on the USS Enterprise, his "Scotty" set the standard for generations of geeks and engineers. Working with the latest future technologies, often experimental, under a demanding boss for whom FTL travel, teleporters, galactic communications and more firepower than all of 20th Century Earth combined weren't enough to cakewalk through missions on any given week, Scotty's role model has influenced millions of 20th Century predecessors. His ingenuity, fortitude, and sense of humor while telling the boss that his demands are insane, but doable, even under excruciating time pressure floating around a newly discovered dimension, are an inspiration to us all. Mr. Doohan, in your new journey, go as boldly as you led us in all your merely astral journeys on our televisions, and in our imaginations.
Anyway, isn't this a 4chan [4chan.org] fad? What's next, posting YTMND [ytmnd.com] sites on Slashdot's front page?

We (my family) were at some friends house for a party just for that show. My father and the host worked together at Goddard Space Flight Center for NASA)
At that time, the show and special effects were near cutting edge, and a lot of the concepts in the show were new and strange- cool!
The plots were standard fare, but that's true of any show- it's damn near impossible to come up with a totally original, never been done before story line and plot. All of the basic ones have been done for centuries I guess.
