How developers of modern technology were motivated by Trek and how daily tech has caught up with the sci fi of Trek.

#!!#%!#% Motorola would be an obvious example...

Who else would name the first wide-spread sale clamshell phone the StarTAC?

Ok, it's kind of obvious... Some engineer flipped the first prototype open and said 'Beam me up, Scotty'...

Hes pointing out how two generations of Trekies are changing the world to become Star Trek.

The Trekies want it all like Star Trek. Hes showing those who are making those changes.

Lets face it. Todays school children are educated to to become comie libs. Not how our technology is changing.

I love the scenes of the old Star Trek backdrops in the desert.

the show looks stoopid, but maybe its just because I'm not a Shitner/Star Trek fan.

You just don't have a sense of humor.

If you haven't noticed.. He's also poking fun at the Trekies.

Edit to add the "f" in fun.

I guarantee you (ie I know for certain) that Motorola was thinking StarTrek when they came out with the StarTac flip phone..

I really wonder about Capt Kirk's mental state, he didnt care if they were green, purple or had tentacles instead of hands, he took'em all back to his stateroom for a night cap.
