Write your reply.

assistant: No dickweed, you missed the point (as usual.)  It's the principle
I'm talking about, not whether or not your shit was from the
official geeklopedia of Star Trek.
And if you  had read the entire message, and others, you would
have known that I was talking about the principle; that principle
being, that it's all FICTION.  You (and some others here) are
talking about this as if it's real life (as if there really
were a USS Enterprise or a Star Destroyer!)
It's all fiction!  It's assinine to argue "this ship is
better than that",  since they were all made up by a writer
at his type writer.  That's what my beef is!
The superiority of Star Wars over Star Trek, is not a matter
of "this ship is better than that", at least in the sense
you're arguing.  It's something far less juvenille,  and
has to do with the settings themselves.

       Sir, do you have any common sense whatsoever?  You claim to be "tired
of telling me", yet you haven't noticed that I haven't responded, or even
read these messages yet.  So how could I have stopped if I wasn't here, huh?
Did you notice I wasn't writing back, or getting the messages?  Shouldn't
that have told you that I wasn't reading your messages, so in essence, you
haven't told me anything until I read the message.
I have been away for a week so you are way out of line.

rereleases alone, Star Wars has made so much money and been one of the most
popular things to grace the Earth, much more popular than Star Trek.  I do
think they re-released the films for money but hell, not like they needed it
to make another movie, and if they did, well hell, that makes sense.  You
