Well, I guess I'm just a killjoy, or a party-pooper or the like.  Other than
making the KLI "legal" I don't see anything good about it.  I have this supreme
*loathing* for Paramount, to put it *very* mildly.  The *only* thing that is
Paramount that I will even *consider* having anything to do with is Trek.  As
far as I'm concerned, they're not just Ferengi, but the most *dishonorable*
sort of Ferengi that one can imagine.  The only reason that I haven't *totally*
boycotted Paramount and their products is because of their strangle-hold on
Trek.  Mark my words...they'll find *some* way to make a profit off of the KLI. 
Maybe not this year, or the next, but eventually.  They are without honor.

And I tried to keep my flame-thrower on the setting right below "crisp" so I
wouldn't melt anyone's keyboards.  It was the lowest setting I could use.

Rant mode off (*growl*),
