Subject:  Top 10 Reasons Why Star Wars Characters Would Kick Butt In The
Star Trek Universe:

  10) In the Star Wars universe, weapons rarely, if ever, are set on
        "stun."

   9) The Enterprise needs a huge engine room with an anti-matter unit and
        a crew of twenty just to go into warp--the Millenium Falcon does the
        same thing with R2-D2 and a Wookie.

   8) After resisting the Imperial torture droid and Darth
        Vader,  Princess Leia still looked fresh and desirable--after pithy
        Cardassian starvation torture, Picard looked like hell.

   7) One word: lightsabers.

   6) Darth Vader could choke the entire Borg empire with one
        glance.

   5) The Death Star doesn't care if a world is class "M" or not.

   4) Luke Skywalker not obsessed with sleeping with every alien he
        encounters.

   3) Jabba the Hutt would eat Harry Mudd for trying to cut in on his
        action.

   2) The Federation would have to attempt to liberate any ship named
        "Slave I".

   1) Picard pilots Enterprise through asteroid belt at one-quarter
        impulse power.  Han Solo floors it.
