James Cawley writes: "Star Trek is celebrating it's 60th anniversary this year. Star Trek means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. a lot of passionate people. So I implore all of you, STOP hating and attacking fellow fans both old and new. Its OK to not like every series, film or episode. If Star Trek has taught us anything its certainly that our differences make us stronger the ways they and we come together. It's simple, Just stop the infighting and the hate and the idiotic bickering over whether a new series is good or bad. To each his own, while some series may not be my cup of tea, they are to someone else, and if a young person discovers Trek thru their love of a new show, That is a good thing. Star Trek will change, again and again, and as long as it speaks to it's audience and draws them into a vision of the peaceful, united future that Gene envisioned for us all, Then it is doing it's job to entertain. I am not a paid shill, or anything else you wish to call me. I am simply committed to the ideas and values that the franchise has always upheld. Star Trek Lives, and with the hope that each new series or film will continue to inspire new generations of fans, it will surely continue to Live Long and Prosper! See you in the final frontier..."
