**Interfer** is a Vulcan mathematical term. It means “to affect the numbers in a bad way.” ---

In that case, quite easily. Any time a Romulan interferes with a Vulcan, it can be safely assumed it is to interfer. Duh. ---

I personally can’t stand you. 😉 Of course we love you. You’re a ball to have around. You’re like the little brother we never wanted. 😃 All kidding aside, I know that you’ve been posting without seeng the episode until a week later but that’s something I really don’t want to do. I prefer to watch things with minimal spoilers so that my reaction isn’t influenced by the opinion of others. So I’ll just have to continue my current pattern of participation. ---

[spitting in rage] Current pattern of participation!? [sir] Why, that’s an outrage! Mark my words, there will be no threads… while **Linus** waits. _STIV:TVH_, it’s useful for many things… ---

Okay, next season about to start again… Guess I need to start looking for new Ent threads. But I’ve not been around much here during the off-season. What’d I miss? And on the Romulans and canon and such… Current Xindi events ending in the year 2154. According to the Denise and Michael Okuda **Star Trek Encyclopedia** … “The Neutral Zone was established in 2160 after a conflict between Earth and the Romulans. That conflict had been fought with early space vessels using primitive atomic weapons.” Welllllll… I doubt we’re going to get a war fought with just atomic weapons, since we’ve already encountered Romulans in season 2 (no viewscreen contact, though – at least they got that right), and they were more technologically advanced already. Not to mention that it’s a little anticlimactic to fight a war with nukes in space, when you’ve just defended against a big planet-killing spinning death sphere. But, this series has a few years where they could do the first Romulan / Earth conflict. Wonder if we’ll see it. ---

My my… I **have** been away too long… I see that **NoClueBoy** has babbled his way to a 10,000+ post count while I was gone… 😃 **athelas** – Gotta agree with you that “Ex-stink-tion” was the worst of the season. But on that note – they still keeping that virus-in-a-box on board? ---

You know, if UPN wasn’t the bunch of bitches it was, we’d have an all new ENT thread going right now but noooo, we have to wait until Thursday (assuming cplant or Yosemite still get the futuristic feeds) or Friday. A pox on their houses! A pox! ---

**Linus** , Tylenol PM is part pain killer and part Benadryl-equivalent, which means that you will sleep very well but you might be groggy later. And that’s just with ONE pill. I have no idea what will happen on Friday night, since there are sports, non-debates and other crap that local station managers might fiddle with. I hope ENT will actually come on at 8pm, but be prepared for the possibility of the show being delayed.
