It won't go away until we stop talking about it.
That's a horrible idea. Not talking about it is what got us in the mess in the first place.

Pretty sure they open "talked" about racism in the slavery era.That's a horrible idea. Not talking about it is what got us in the mess in the first place.

America's history with slavery doesn't go away simply because it isn't talked about,
Nothing, not "not" talking about it, or rallies, or speeches, or "direct action" or anything else, is going to change what has happened in the past.
This applies to all things.
Especially marital problems,

Who is better Kirk or Piccard?
Agreed...
Alright, rank 'em.. Janeway, Kirk, Sisko and Archer?
Okay, so I kind of missed the whole Voyager thing. Actually, I deliberately avoided it, largely because I read a really annoying review/preview of it that included the line "and, oh, that bun," apparently written by some chick who must have been identifying as a guy at the time, because no guy would actually write such a thing. Anyway....
So I decided to give it a shot recently, figuring that maybe my Neanderthalic predilections were unfairly biasing me against the show. I was focusing particularly on Captain Janeway.
She was awful. Apparently, someone had told her that the way to project strength was to speak robotically, and clip all your sentences.
But to your question....if you're going to ask me to rank them all, I think the fairest test that could possibly be used is: who would have the best chance of defeating a Gorn on a random, barren planet? My rankings are as follows:
1) Kirk -- because we know he can actually beat a Gorn. Plus, he's Kirk.
2) Archer -- this was really tough, but I figured his ability to slide to different timestreams gave him an advantage over 3)
3) Sisko -- I was tempted to put him higher because of the higher percentage of fast-twich muscles he would have had, but after reading The Bell Curve, I just couldn't bring myself to do it.
99) Janeway -- within 30 seconds, the Gorn would have spilled his seed on her, then devoured her. Not necessarily in that order.
How did I do?
