Please respond to
MAPICS ERP System
Discussion
Just to set the record straight:
Captain Picard (Next Generation) said "Make it so" and "Engage"
Captain Kirk while continuously violating the Prime Directive said "Beam me
up, Scottie"
Mr Spock said "It is only logical"
Doc "Bones" McCoy said "Damn it Jim, I'm a Doctor not a ..." (Mapics
developer?)
And Enterprise (with Scott Bacula), the latest entry in the Roddenberry
tradition looks like it is about to fall into the same old Sci-Fi trap
where
every week is a new enemy to shoot at. The beauty of Roddenberry's vision
was that of overcoming our history of war and striving for peace in the
universe (to seek out new life and new civilizations). You don't blow up
your enemies, you outwit them (and boldly go where no one has gone before).
Not bad for a backward little race in an awkward corner of the universe.
(something Q might say).
... What does this have to do with Mapics?
I miss Joan's commentary too.

As Mr. Spock always said, "T= here are always possibilities".
I thought it was Captain Picard that= said "Make it so." in STNG........
I
don't remember Kirk saying "Make i= t happen.", but it's been a while
since
I've seen any Original Series St= ar Trek episodes. Of course, Kirk was
who
usually made stuff happen!
Maybe the programmers believe in the Vulcan IDIC - "Infinite
Diversity
in
Infinite Combinations" - they like to try a little of everything!
