Ender's Game the Movie

One for you and the Mrs

The end of that article reminded me of the portrayal of Jonathan Archer, captain of the prequel Enterprise throughout Star Trek: Enterprise season 3.

At the end of season 2, the alien Xindi race had launched a probe that killed 7 million people in Florida, and rumour had it that this was a precursor to the next probe that would destroy the Earth completely.

So season 3 was all about finding and stopping the Xindi, and Archer found himself using hardline tactics to make a success of his mission, like robbing a friendly starship of their warp coil and torturing the enemy -- he found himself dropping his previously high moral stance to save billions of lives.

This was said to be, by the cast in the documentaries, related to america's response to 9/11.

Thoughts?

PS. Will there be a call for a ban on hunting following the Cheney incident?
PPS. I had guessed that might be your router solution :-) I'm glad you're fixed!
