By the way this invitation is extended specifically to Led4Aces, but if 
I know you guys, and I do, you will all jump into it.

I say that The Original Star Trek ~was~ an action/adventure show.  I am 
prepared to defend that point of view against all comers - either one at 
a time, or all at once from all sides - as is customary.

I fully expect the usual.  The outcome will be the same.  I will be 
right, and I will throughly well prove that I am right, but none of you 
will acknowledge that I am right, and furthermore you will all call me 
all kinds of names.

A whole year will pass, and I will still be here, despite all your 
efforts to shut me up and drive me away.

Nevertheless, TOS was/is an action/adventure show.  That's a fact.
