   One of the local Free-to-air T.V. stations is giving us a double dose of   
   ST:TNG each afternoon. Yesterday, one of the episodes was "Conspiracy"   
   and, before the opening credits, Riker is in the Top Chair and give La   
   Forge the order "Warp 6" to which La Forge responds "Eye Sir, Full   
   Impulse"!!   
      
   Really!! Warp 6 is only Full Impulse?? I know there was a change of   
   scale in the Warp Speeds between ST:TOS and ST:TNG, but I was always   
   under the impression Full Impulse was roughly equivalent to Warp 1.   
      
   Have I been wrong all these years?? Or did La Forge stuff up?? Or did   
   the scriptwriters stuff up??
