[color=#000000:post_uid0]Stop it, all you guys! My country is 42 kilometres across and can be driven from end to end on the inside of forty minutes, alright?

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I once determined that Singapore is about the same size as Greater Vancouver.

And the province I'm currently living in, as well as the one I was living in up until last month, are both larger than most countries.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Are you sure? Slovenia can also be driven from end to end, from Croatian border to Austrian border inside 40 minutes.

And there are also Liechtenstein, Andorra, San Marino... teeny weeny countries! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][i:post_uid0]Slovenia can also be driven from end to end, from Croatian border to Austrian border inside 40 minutes.[/i:post_uid0]

That's side to side, not end to end.

[i:post_uid0]And there are also Liechtenstein, Andorra, San Marino... teeny weeny countries![/i:post_uid0]

But those aren't real countries. Liechtenstein is a rental property, Andorra is co-ruled by France and a Spanish bishop, Monaco is destined to become French when the Prince dies without heir...

There are a bunch of Pacific nations with a greater share of the globe than Singapore but less land area, since they consist of some specks of coral and vast tracts of water.

According to this, (http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_area) Singapore ranks 174 of 193.

Slovenia is 150, Croatia 123, Israel 149, Nederlands 131, Canada 2, USA 4. Did I miss anyone?

Ontario ranks between Bolivia and Mauritania (27 and 28), Quebec between 18 and 19 (Mongolia and Peru)*, Saskatchewan between 39 and 40 (Myanmar and Afghanistan) and BC between 30 and 31 (Tanzania and Nigeria).

* - this seems wrong. I was always led to believe that Ontario was the largest province, not Quebec. Maybe there's some trickery counting freshwater area - or possibly my teachers were all Anglo propagandists. Or my memory is faulty. That seems most likely.

Anyway, my neighbourhood in Kelowna by itself has more that 1000 people in it. Total for the region (Central Okanagan) is over 100,000. Nothing else in BC outside of Vancouver or Victoria gets anwhere near that size.[/color:post_uid0]

No, Pleasant Park, I think. The sign said 39 residents.

I got the distinct feeling it was more of a commercial area, given the several fast food chain franchises that greeted us as we exited the exit ramp.

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]In terms of smallness most of the Western Isles is comprised of very small villages. In Achmor where I lived for a while (and where my dad still does) the population can't have been more than 60 or 70 people. Of course most of the villages run into each other (they tend to be strung along the roads), it's kind of difficult to quantify the population sometimes. There can't be more than 20000 people in the whole of the Western Isles - about half of that is actually concentrated in Stornoway.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Space shuttle. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Actually, a standard class-5 Starfleet shuttlecraft, specially enhanced with the Chakotay Detector - if it detects him at the helm, it automatically shuts down all propulsion systems, :D

The detector locates him by scanning for wood, btw... :p[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]That Chakotay detector, is that standard too? I mean, maybe that's exactly why he keeps crashing all the time. You see, if it shuts down the propulsion systems, that would mean the shuttle crashes. They ought to enhance it so it automatically turns on the auto-pilot and instructs it to land [i:post_uid0]safely[/i:post_uid0] at the nearest available landing space.[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Amazing...

I have just read the Shockwave, Part I fiver (since I`ve only seen the episode for the first time last week), and came across a - chakotaymeter! According to Zeke, it`s a device in Enterprise`s shuttlepods that detects pilot errors. Very curious indeed how I thought of the Chakotay Detector just a few hours before I completely accidentally went reading the Shockwave fiver. :D

Still, about the Chakotay Detector... it scans the passengers BEFORE the shuttle takes off, :p And if Chakotay is one of the passengers, it freezes. This came after Voyager returned home in Endgame. The first thing that happened was the ship crashing in the Pacific Ocean, since the First Officer was at the helm. The second thing was the immediate invention of the Chakotay Detector. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]10 years after "Endgame" - Chakotay, having been forced out of Starfleet due to the number of complaints about him shedding leaves, turns to politics. After a hard fought election, he becomes governor of the lunar settlements (after his opponents in the race all mysteriuosly disappear). The day after he takes office, the entire moon mysteriously begins to plunge towards Earth.

As opposed to Janway of course, who would merely lose it in the Gamma Quadrant for seven years.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, it could be worse.
He could have taken charge of all [i:post_uid0]Martian[/i:post_uid0] colonies.

And Mars is more than ten times as massive as the moon (6.42e23 kg as opposed to 7.32e22 kg). :)

Aren't we all glad there are no Jovian colonies for Chakotay to be governor of?[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, there's always Jupiter Station.

One thing though - what would happen if Chakotay became the UFP President?[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]All Federation starships would start crashing down, until there would be none left. The Romulans would then move in and peacefully take control of the entire Federation. The former capital of the Federation would be renamed into San Romulanisco. Romulan-style hairdo would become a smash hit. Picard and Janeway would probably discuss resistance actions. He`d propose talk and diplomacy, while she`d take out compression phaser rifles. They would eventually find a compromise - compression phaser rifles. But it wouldn`t work. Seven of Nine would modify a few nanoprobes, and while the Romulans are distracted by Kira Nerys screaming, a powerful substance known as The Coffee, Black, would be Borgified into something even more powerful. A battle for independence would begin.

It`s 2008. So begins [i:post_uid0]Star Trek: Series 6. [/i:post_uid0][/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, it already IS in writing, :D You wouldn`t have been able to read it if it wasn`t...

The main character of the series would be a female Cardassian captain played by Jennifer Aniston. Her first officer would be a Breen. :D :D[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]And the (weapons officer? chief of security? resident ambassador?) would be a Ferengi a.k.a. The Show's Official Comic Relief And Instigator Of Half The Plot Devices.


Ferengi Security Chief: Grrr! You killed my pet [i:post_uid0]brungal[/i:post_uid0]! :crying:
Generic Guest Star Villain: Don't forget I screwed up half the ship's systems too and am now on my way to Engineering to blow the ship to bits.
Ferengi: Oh yeah, that too. Anyway, prepare to die like the scum you are, worm! I'm going to blast you full of holes for sure! :madder: Never mind that we still have ten minutes to go in the show!
Villain: I'll give you twenty latinum bars to let me live. Thirty to let me by you into Engineering.
Ferengi: Thirty? Ooo. Make it sixty and we have a deal.
Villain: And a way to fill out the episode. Muahahaha!
Captain: (over the comm) Remind me why we keep you on the ship, much less in such a sensitive position, again?[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Oh, and [i:post_uid0]of course[/i:post_uid0] the Chief Engineer would have to be someone from the same species as Morn.

I still have deranged ideas for the 6th Star Trek series.

There would be a strong sexual tension between the female Cardassian captain and her Breen First Officer (gender undetermined). It would last through the show`s entire 7-year run, but in the final episode, the Breen First Officer would start a relationship with a liberated Borg drone named Five out of Five, thus initiating the B/5 fan movement. :D[/color:post_uid0]

Okay, I think I matched it. Black doesn't stand out very well against the new red, so I had to flip-flop the text colors. But now the color scheme kinda matches the forum's scheme better, so maybe that counts as an improvement.

And the numbering has been corrected. :)

[color=#000000:post_uid0]The tram is horrible! It`s always filled with annoying and loud people. It makes crazy noises. It is slow. Seats are barely ever free. And every time I need tram No.14, No.7 arrives. When I really need 7, 14 arrives...[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]The roads are filled with annoying and loud 12-year-olds. They make crazy noises, and so do some bikes, mine included. Bikes are slower. The lights are barely ever green. On top of that, it's cold. Oh, and I still have to get my light fixed.[/color:post_uid0]

Oh, and don't stick your head in water when it's below -20 degrees Celsius. ;)

You know, this is exactly why I'm not planning to visit Canada in winter. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Nan]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Actually, putting your head in water would just chill you even faster, given the conductive nature of water.

Enh. Eastern and central Canada get cold in winter. Western Canada, out here on the coast (A.K.A. Lotus Land), just gets 100% humidity from time to time.

Wait let me check the humidity at this moment at the Victoria airport.

*elevator music*

There we go. 90% humidity at 6C. Not bad for 7 PM in January.

Not like, sub-Martian cold. *cocks a snook at Sa'ar*[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]90% Humidity? We get that in Georgia during the summer when its 100F (37C).[/color:post_uid0]

Damn. I'm not going to win on this one, am I?

On Lewis it wasn't so much the temperature as the wind. There's nothing like a force nine Atlantic gale to bring colour to your cheeks (and blow you right over too if you're not careful).[/color:post_uid0]

-152. You remember when updates were regular and when "soon" meant "tomorrow." Oh, and when there was peace in Israel.

-153. You hurl stale Timbits at anyone who invokes the last one, since it never happened.

-154. You make jokes about Ron Mercer and the parody police, even though you've never heard of This Hour has Twenty-Two Minutes.

-155. You start giving strange hats to your doctor friends.

-156. You try to kill your doctor friends in various strange ways, and, whether or not you succeed, you run off laughing maniacally and occasionally shouting "GAK!"

-157. You start beating up anyone who uses more than one exclamation point, even if they're spoken exclamation points.

-158. You go to other websites and intentionally divert their threads to random and tangental territory. Preferably within the first 15 posts.

-159. You keep pressuring a friend whose brother designed "Chex Quest" to check out the fiver.

-160. You put thirteen items on a top ten list even though you've only read five of the fifteen pages of the thread.
