I just chucked a page worth of post giving inconsistencies on both sides, but it
was needless. The only reason I know more about ST is because it was on tv for
so long before SW was released on video. And I think that had much to do with
shaping their universes. ST is rougly ten years older, and SW was not designed
for the small screen. Eventually ST came to the big screen, but the stage had
already been set, and it does remain primarily a small screen show.

Apples and oranges, but both are tasty fruit.

Yeah, I've watched a *lot* of ST too.. and neither is 'better' as you
say! The ST universe, by trying to be a universe with multiple writers
is always going to bring up more apparent inconsistencies which makes
them more fun to play with ;) It's done a good job of keeping the sci-fi
torch burning - without which we might not have had B5!

Speaking of which - has anyone done any B5 MOCs? (1x1 blue cylinders
don't count :)
