That was pretty much my reaction as well when I heard they were doing that. What they did was never mention the borg by name, like the Enterprise episode with the Ferengi if you saw that one. We the viewers know who they were, but the people in the episode don't.

What it's supposed to be is the Borg Sphere that went back in time in the Star Trek First Contact movie didn't actually disintigrate in space like we thought, but part of it stayed together long enough to crash land at one of the polar regions. There buried in the ice it laid dormant until discovered by scientists during the time on earth when Archer's Enterprise was making it's voyage.

One of the scientists get's assimilated and takes off in a warp capable ship and leaves earth. Presumably to return to the Delta quadrant and tell the current Borg to come and assimilate the pre-federation earth, although we don't really know that. Archer is ordered to intercept the ship and...ah, I'll leave it at that so you still have some suprise if you happen to catch it in reruns.

Thanks for the info on that episode. I'll try to catch the rerun, but even though they show the repeats in Tampa on Saturday nights at 10:00, it's still hard for me to catch them then.

my favorite star trek episode's are now the five-minute ones.

Janeway: Um, what is a Cardassian bomb doing in the middle of the Delta Quadrant?
Torres: It looks like the backstroke.
Janeway: Groan. Just for that, this is going to be your character development episode.
Torres: Crap.

well, five-minute voyager was fun, but i decided to move on.

Bloodmist: Join me, for I am your evil clone!
Rev: That's way too clichéd. Tone it down.
Bloodmist: Evil twin, then.
Rev: Almost as bad.
Bloodmist: Brother?
Rev: Getting better....
Bloodmist: Fellow Magog trying to return you to the fold?
Rev: Bingo.

My fav episode is "The Sacrifice of Angels" from DS9. This is only because of the massive battle between the Federation/Kilngon and Cardassian/Dominion fleet though.... I always enjoy watching two galaxy-class cruisers destroy a galor-class cruiser
