Comment by Joshua Colwell on November 19, 2012 at 9:27pm: Hi, I just discovered this group and atheistnexus. I hate for my first post to seem self-serving, but I have an e-book (only about 30 pages) with what is (hopefully) a fun mix of Star Trek and atheism that will be FREE on black Friday at amazon.com: The Faith of an Atheist. Fellow trekkie atheists might enjoy it, and it's free this Friday.

Comment by Grinning Cat on November 13, 2012 at 9:29am: "Quark" ... was cleverly, wickedly funny. I think that was about the time that the average couch potato had to have everything spelled out for him/her in capital letters.

One of my general gripes about TV is laugh tracks (reportedly much more common in U.S. than in British TV). Do we really need to be hit over the head and told "That was funny!"?

Another purpose of laugh tracks could be simulating a social group, creating a feeling of watching with other people even when you're watching a show alone.

Comment by sk8eycat on November 8, 2012 at 7:39pm: I've been having trouble finding things on Wikipedia the last few weeks; I think they've made some major changes....and I don't like them!

Try this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077066/

Scroll down below the cast list for a brief storyline.

Comment by Ruth Anthony-Gardner on November 8, 2012 at 7:00pm: sk8eycat, the Quark (TV series) wikipedia link was a dud. Glad somebody else enjoyed it.
