[site contains an audio file of Star Trek's Picard & Data]

	Picard: Smalltalk?
	Data:   Yes, sir.... I've found that humans often use smalltalk
	        during awkward moments, therefore I've written
	        a new subroutine for that purpose.

So, I guess that they are *still* using subroutines in the 24th century.
I guess we shouldn't be looking to hard at their UI's either.

At least Data didn't have to reboot himself.
