Wonderfully hilarious, Terry!

And my geek is showing here, but I just can't resist answering Ann's question:

Quote
I love the fact that everyone in the Andromeda galaxy speaks the same language, but I guess it's the same thing in the Milky Way - I mean, all the aliens that Captain Kirk comes across on every Class M planet in the Star Trek universe speak English, don't they?
Actually, I don't believe they do. I'm pretty sure Star Trek (or one of its sequel serieses--or even just some of the fanon or official novels) originated the concept of a "universal translator," though I could very well be wrong.

And even if it didn't, they wouldn't be speaking English anyway--it would be Federation Standard. smile
