> important each moment must be. So HIS life never came into focus. He drifted
> through most of his career, with no plan or agenda... going from one
> assignment to the next, never seizing the opportunities that presented
> themselves. He never led the away team on Millica 3 to save the ambassador,
> or took charge of the Stargazer's bridge when its captain was killed... and
> no one ever offered HIM a command. He learned to 'play it safe' ... and
> never got noticed by anybody.
