   Good, shows that someone at Paramount was thinking.  The characters are not   
   the same age, and wouldn't have been all at the Academy at the same time.   
   It would have been as stupid as the recent decision with the X-Men   
   reimagined cartoon which made all the mutants, save Xavier, Magneto, and   
   Logan, about the same age, give or take 5 years.
