Coming from a guy who named his blog after an obscure Star Trek IV reference … I applaud Jacin in their massive knowledge of the greater Star Trek universe." That's meant to be obscure? I got that immediately and laughed... Of course, "The hell, I will" is a fave-rave in my parlance... But then again, am I a good one to decide what is and is not obscure? Hm. It's like a Zen koan. “Indeed. Coming from a guy who named his blog after an obscure Star Trek IV reference … I applaud Jacin in their massive knowledge of the greater Star Trek universe.”

I hope that isn't meant to be the Excalibur there in that picture. The Excalibur was -- at least, up until when I stopped reading the series -- an Ambassador class starship (like the Enterprise-C) rather than a Galaxy class ship (like the Enterprise-D), and Jellico's ship, prior to him being promoted to Admiral, was an Excelsior class (like the Enterprise-B).
