Definitely!We really need to take care of what we have
And in the spirit of "the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof ..."
I have seen in the store near me a couple of Korean beers in plastic bottles, not sure if that is how that beer is sold in South Korea or if it is just for when it is exported to other countries. I heard from a friend that in some Eastern European countries that is the only way you can buy beer.
In the US some sporting veunes and concert halls only sell beer in plastic bottles. I have heard two reasons for that- safety because people were using the glass beer bottles as a weapon (breaking it or throwing it like a missle) and clean up of the broken glass. I think this might be geographical though because I have been to a couple of games in the last year and the beer was poured into a plastic cup, no plastic bottled beer that I saw.
Although I don't drink alcohol (not since 1986) I was wondering about this - is there any beer that comes in plastic bottles?
We dont' have Dr Pepper here either - so I have to buy imported Dr Pepper!
I have a great love of the work of the late Charles Napier... but I believe in that episode Spock smirks
I particularly hated how Spock gave Bones instructions on how to re-connect his brain AS Bones was doing it.
the Alternative Factor is one I forgot to add.
Assignment: Earther I think was an attempt to start a spin-off series
As I am anti-social I have never been to a convention (I even get my groceries on-line)
I make it a rule NEVER to drink anything that has a title No Mr. Pibb, no Dr. Pepper. I find the doctor's credentials highly suspicious. Anything that has prune juice mixed with fizz and corn syrup, he couldn't possibly have graduated from medical school!And Mr. Pibb, well, with a name like that, I can't trust him at all.
We seriously need to start an Orthodox Star Trek thread but I suspect we don't have enough fans in TAW to support it! I'm alone in my Star Trek plus progressive rock fandom and guitar-playing I suspect. On a Catholic board I used to be a member of (shall remain nameless, Lord have Mercy!) I started a thread about guitar-players and goodness, it went on for like 12 pages! LOL! Pretty soon they all started talking about their own guitars and styles and I was in heaven! Then it happened with Star Trek and Dune! I was in seventh heaven. No such like in CF....yet!

Spectre of the Gun
Journey to Babel
A Taste of Armaggedon
The Enterprise Incident
Day of the Dove

I'm not sure if you ever got Blake's 7 tv series. It has appalling special effects. But it is a twist on Star Trek. Terry Nation (who created it he also created the Daleks) takes the 'arrow heard' logo and turns it literally on its side. In it the Federation is a system that are baddies
Also he has an episode that is a complete rip-off of Star Trek's Arena excepting that two people from each crew are transported to the planet... and it's a battle against a 'baddie' human captain (as opposed to a 'gorn')
My least favourite character from any star trek series is Lwaxana Troi
Our divergent food preferences continue. I'd rather drink Draino than Dr. Pepper. That stuff should be given to terrorists in favor of water-boarding. Yuck.....

I grew up on ST:TNG and ST:Voyager. You'll understand if I found Shatner's acting off-putting, the setting garish and nevertheless adore Spock.
Since my family didn't raise me Christian, I always say that I was taught morality by ST.
No, I won't understand. Blasphemy to criticize the original series! off-putting and garish, pah....some consider Stewart's portrayal of Picard as stuffy and wimpy, pretentious and too full of himself. I like both of them but especially Kirk. Gotta love him...
