We should also keep in mind that the writers of the show are just that - writers not scientists. I'm sure if they could explain just how transporters and replicators work (and make them work for real) they wouldn't be working as writers. I like Star Trek as much for its consitency as for its attempt at being realistic. But it is, and will always remain, a science FICTION show. It is meant to entertain, not teach us how to advance our technology. While I, too enjoy discussions about the viability of the technology depicted in Star Trek, I am always mindful that whatever technology was introduced, there might be a reason beyond mere science (plot devices, budget reasons etc.).

STSF Linus -> @<THOPS> <CO> I'm picking up EM emissions, probably form an energy source. Cmdr JFarrington -> @<CO> ::straightens up:: <THOPS> In the vicinity of the AT? CdtFreeman -> <CSEC><ASEC> Do it. Might come in handy. WadeFKnight -> <MXO><CMO> ::nods:: Good. Let's investigate. Maybe we can pick us up some cool Breen technology to study. knlwtchr -> <CMO>::nods at CSEC:: STSF Linus -> @<THOPS><CO> Due to the chronitons it's difficult to locate it's exact position but it's somewhere inside the settlement. So, yeah, within 2 kilometres. kirkriker -> <ASEC>+THOPS+Could you check in the ships library and see if there is a way to scan through temporal shielding? STSF Linus -> @<THOPS>+ASEC+ I'm on it. CdtFreeman -> <CSEC> Don't like this. Seriously smells like an ambush. CdtFreeman -> <CSEC> But then they woulda opened up by now, probably...

CdtFreeman -> <CSEC> ::proceeds to catch up with MXO and CSCI:: Cmdr JFarrington -> @<CO> +XO+ SitRep. STSF Linus -> <CSCI><ASCI> Let'S try to find out where exactly those chronitons are coming from.

They could be...in a different time...out of phase, you know. Maybe they are here but not really here. WadeFKnight -> <MXO>+CO+ Things are looking a bit strange down here, sir. It almost seems like all the Breen just, disappeared. No signs of any conflict, there are tables set up with food as though they just left in the middle of eating.
