It pretty much lists what is wrong with screenplay writers, and with letting the morons (the writers' term for actors) have any control whatsoever over the roles they have to play.

Not that it's restricted to Star Trek, or indeed sci-fi. Fantasy is much worse, and other genres like detective, horror, and suspense are often just as bad (especially the screen-written variety).

It's within my capabilities to play devil's advocate and argue against their points, but that wouldn't stop them being 90% right.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
