>Worst of all, this flying disaster-in-waiting is supposedly the product of the finest engineers the Federation has to offer. I've thought about this one before. Imagine how bad the other ships must have it. They must be failing all the time (not just when the cameras are on). For Starfleet to operate it all, they must need a fleet of repair ships, spacedocks with warp drive, which come along and rebuild the USS Irreparable every time the captain forgets not to drag the boot disk to the Trash.
