    See my previous post which asked about the actors you had personal   
   knowledge of.   
      
   I note your ad hominem post of last resort by the way.

   Ah. So your knowledge is second hand and based on ten Usenet posts. I see.

   Can anyone parse that paragraph?

   Um, Brannon Braga is a single entity. He was hysterically funny at a con I   
   ran way back in '94. Hungover six ways from hell, and caused great   
   amusement. Bloody awful writer.   
      
   I think Trek hit a downward spiral when he forced Ron Moore out - and Ron is   
   a true gentleman who does not demand adoration from an audience, either. He   
   will enter into debate and argument cheerfully, with no ego. (Piller was   
   like that.)   
      
   Trek went crap when Voyager hit the screens.
