TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The Enterprise crew has got all their photon torpedoes trained on the Borg
ship's warp core, and Picard is just about to say "Make It So" when an
emergency communique from Starfleet Command instructs them that they must
not fire all the photon torpedoes simultaneously because this might slow the
performance of the holodeck and the chocolate sundae replicators.
Instead, they are instructed to take all the torpedoes down to the cargo
bay, open the cargo bay doors, and fire the torpedoes out the cargo bay
doors using slingshots.
Since this would result in all of them being sucked out into space, a
committee is formed at Starfleet Command to study the potential effects of
being sucked into a vortex without oxygen or pressure. Meanwhile the Borg
ship has long since passed by, made its way to Earth, and hollowed out the
moon for use as a gigantic skin-bleach and Nair repository.

Tom Murrell suggests: <<I think a major story theme has to revolve around
Microsoft (played by the Borg) trying to assimilate the LINUX bunnies
(played by the Teletubby Bunnies). You have the entire universe of Star Trek
characters, but they can't save the
day. Only the Tech Writers can save us.>>
