   This is hard to read. What's up with your client? Was   
   this from an HTML interface? It looks like every %20 was   
   replaced with an =20.

   I'm going to go with Captain Freeman, from Star Trek:   
   Lower Decks. She probably isn't really the best captain,   
   but I'm choosing her anyway because Lower Decks is   
   currently my favorite Trek.   
      
   To rationalize my choice, I point out that she does more   
   with less. She has a weaker ship which often breaks, and   
   her crew aren't exactly the living legends found on most   
   featured Trek ships, yet the day still gets saved.
