Marc – Before you get a billion emails from less charitable sci-fi geeks than yours truly, I should note that a war with Mars would not be “intergalactic,” it wouldn’t even be inter-solar-system. It would merely be interplanetary. Intergalactic wars are actually very rare in science fiction because galaxies are so far apart. Even the Borg, for instance, only come from the Delta Quadrant.

As for your sentiments about those damn hippies, I’m totally with you.

Oh, and welcome to the Corner.

Corner barada nikto!
