Mold in my head, Part 2

[joegoda]

I was thinking sleep would help me feel better, but instead I feel like I was beaten with a 2x4 about the neck and shoulders. Aw well... reckon this is my year for feeling less than fresh. It just means my immune system will grow stronger and the next 50 years will be a breeze.

Now, I have a question: Since the Borg move so slowly, like zombies, why didn't someone just get a long pokey thing and stick 'em with it. It's already been determined that the Borg can't continue without their bio parts, so why not just stick something sharp through 'em?

Yeah, yeah... I know. It's just a movie or a show, but I'm wondering. Is it the thing where people forgot how to use low tech stuff? And yet, they still punched each other in the faces. The Borg... conquered by a young boy with a sharp stick. Now that would have been a funny episode.

Trek has had several instances where a low-tech solution would have saved the day. The Enterprise was stuck in some asteroid field one time and couldn't pull another ship out because the tractor beams wouldn't work, and I wanted to yell at them "Tie a rope to it!"
