If you'd bothered searching the board archives, you'd know that answer already.

Tons of people have done the calcs before on the board. It's not that difficult to find. Plus, some of us aren't too terribly concerned with the vs debates. Alternatively, you can always do the calcs yourself if you know how.

SW vs ST is pretty much dead nowdays, aside from rabid trekkies who are in denial, or rabid warsies who want to keep rubbing it in.

You call yourself the Manhattan (it's spelled with an a in the end) Project, so hopefully you know concepts from high school physics (at least the formulas please!) and you can do it yourself to concur with Wong or not.

You don't need to ask us.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

You are a hypocrite, unless you change the spelling of Manhattan in your profile location.

Anyways, thanks for the info. BTW, if the debates are dead, then why is there a site like SD.net?

Listen prick, you misspelled it, that's all that matters.

And if you had a brain, you would realize I do know how to spell as I just corrected you and thus my frakkin location is meaningless you cumquat.

Fact: My location has been there ever since I joined (four years ago) and I have never touched it since. It should be obvious that I learned since then, right asspaste?

Yes. Many people other than Mike work on these figures.

The question posed in the title: Choosing the right side. Wong is right because he says a fully developed galactic civilisation can easily defeat a fully developed interplanetary one it outnumbers by several orders of magnitude.

SDnet was created back when SW vs ST was still hot. Now, SDnet's purpose has evolved beyond its SW vs ST beginnings, and now it's just a little internet community of intellectual malcontents and sexual deviants. :P
