Doghead's Cosmic Bar

Oh yeah.

Attempts to stop me from hacking are futile. There is no drone anywhere that would have known my procedures. They are derivatives of 7 of 9's procedures, but are unique.

You make the assumption that 7 of 9 is capable of hacking into the Collective and altering it. That assumption is incorrect.

I can think of at least three eps of Voyager that contradict that last statement, Borgy.

Hey borgie, you wanna regenerate? I've got a spare alcove back here...

Why's that? Good for dance hall effects?

Exactly..

The "episodes" of which you speak are Federation propaganda. They bear only partial resemblence to reality.

Actually not, I don't know what reality you are in but I worked in Engineering so THERE

Um, not to play Devil's Advocate but I don't remember anyone named Steve Slacker on the crew. Do you think they'd let a guy with a name like that through Starfleet Academy?

It might have made the average crew member a little bit more human, having character flaws...

They had character flaws, but a guy who slacks off all the time wouldn't keep a job in Engineering, if he escaped failing the academy.

It is possible that Steve Slacker was just that guy who went around and cleaned the toilets. They would need someone for that.

Besides, even though the crew was only supposed to be 140 or so, I reckon if you went back through the series and took a head count of all the nameless crewmen you see or took a list of all the crewmen we meet or who get a name check in the show, the total number would be somewhere over three or four hundred. They obviously had quite a few that they kept in storage. Maybe Steve never got thawed out.
