It was a big gun

By Eli Wallace, Oct 9th, 2009

I know that this was a big gun and all, but I can't help thinking that if it had been just a LITTLE bit bigger, maybe I wouldn't be stuck on this ship. Just sayin'. -- I know the "bunker shielding technology" was meant to prevent enemies from beaming in, but it's kind of funny when you really think about it, Mom. All those arguments my friends and I have had whenever Kirk was in mortal danger on the planet below and the Enterprise transporter would conveniently seem to malfunction... and here we are proving that it actually happens in the real world. Who would've guessed?
