You know, I just realized how dumb it is that I grew up on TNG and yet have never written a bald dude into my sci-fi.
I need to stop sucking and do that.
Make it so.
You could also make it Sisko.
Never beat yourself up for not realizing something sooner. The conditions that were required for understanding happened at the exact time they were supposed to.
Or, in lieu of that, at their earliest possible convenience.
It's that Picard-being-bald thing: it's not that they won't have a cure for baldness in the 25th century, it's that humanity will be long extinct by then.
That's not where I thought this was going to go :(
I think it's good though because in a way it means that to you see those guys are just as regular people.
