I believe that Star Trek is more than just mere entertainment. There is much to learned from Gene Rodenberry`s world.

1. Dress for success. Because we all know what happens to those red shirts. Some members of Starfleet are just not destined to return from the away mission! A flair for fashion may be your saving grace. Something in a nice mustard yellow will suffice! (Unless we`re talking The Next Generation where yellow shirts have the higher death toll.)

2. Avoid conformity. Resistance is NOT futile.

3. Think carefully before getting a pet. Especially true in the case of tribbles and bunny rabbits.

4. Some disputes are trivial. Perhaps. . . . and I have one thing to add to this - PICARD!!!!

5. Diversity is important. I wholeheartedly agree with this statement. I would especially want to support beard diversity.

6. The smartest guy is never in charge. True, but it`s both fascinating and intriguing that the smartest guy gets the most female fans :)

7. Don`t go out into nature unprepared. The boy scouts were right!

8. Too much technology can be bad. Perhaps . . . but I`m sorry, an android (not a robot!) dressed like Sherlock Holmes is not a valid argument against technology.

9. Stand up to Bullies. Although I would like to point out that Q is like the boy who pulls the pigtails of the girl he likes. It`s obvious that Q loves mon capitan.

10. Steer clear of other peoples`business. Because white furred, horned ape maulings are never fun.
