O great last line trekfan. Another of your short stories that I found a pleasure to read and yet another insightful view into the Mind Of Hank and what makes him such a special person and commander.
Was a good choice to redress a modern argument that all contemporary art/music is just a poor cousin to what gone before. Still good job having hank make the point that rock and roll wasn’t welcome when it first emerge.
We all get old and prefer the music of our youth but, the next generation must innovate and create something that is truly there music even if the older generation don’t like it.
Top Story – well done.

Ha! Chris and Scotty share tastes in music. And a massive dislike of 'modern' music. I wonder if it's an engineer thing; they do often tend to take the basic idea of 'if it isn't broke, don't fix it', though that never stops them from, 'upgrade, improvise, modify,' when the need arises.
Anyway, Hank smelling like a Klingon was terrific, and his attempt to calm his friend down, too.
Author's Response:
Yes, this piece was a fun one to write, if only for the exploration on the topic of art in the 24th century which commonly gets lost in the various TNG era shows where they're obsessing over old art and barely recognizing modern art. I wanted to do some commentary on that while also having fun with Chris here, who's really attatched to his classic rock. Engineers seem to like that sorta thing. Thanks for the review :)
