Excerpt:
"The students calculated that the average human would be made up of 2.6 times 10 to the power of 42 bits (the basic unit of computing information, smaller than a byte), a number that includes your complete genetic code and all the stuff in your brain. Assuming we even had the technology to make teleportation work, the amount of time it would take to move all that information from one place to another would be dependent on bandwidth. If your teleporter was packing 29.5 to 30 gigahertz of bandwidth power, the students estimate the transfer would take 4.5 times 10 to the power of 15 years.
That's about 350,000 times longer than the universe has existed, and the universe has existed for somewhere in the neighborhood of 14 billion years."

Have to say, I really appreciate and like seeing the generosity in the fleet. Particularly for members striving to make gains. I've had numerous items donated to me recently and in the past and I've seen consoles, weapons, DOFF's, and more - even special ships freely given to other players in the past.
This makes me feel like we're a growing STO family of a sort, or brotherhood. You don't often see this sort of generosity and friendliness in other fleets or out in the public STO world - and it makes me appreciate everyone who has contributed in some way, shape or form to other members.
To you all, I salute you! Makes me proud and happy to be in the 88th!
That's right folks, it's time for another brief edition of the 88th Comedy Hour in Ten Forward! (Cuz we're just all sorts of fun and games and not all super-serious shtuff!)

A: Mr. Scott: 'Cos ma wee transporter beam was na functioning properly. Ah canna work miracles, Captain.
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: Dr. McCoy: Dammit Jim!! I'm a doctor not an farmer!
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: Mr. Spock: Obviously, it was the logical thing to do.
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: Mr. Data: Why is a barn yard fowl crossing a thoroughfare humorous?
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: Mr. Worf: For the honor of all chickens.
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: Counsilor Troi: I knew it was going to happen. I could sense it.
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: Computer: Insufficient information.
I have to say, Season 8 is a welcome change from the STO usual pace of play and it's nice to be able to have more things to do than I actually have time for!
