The discussion of chocolate began in the context of Star Trek, believe
it or not.  Yes, it wandered a bit, and it is time it stopped or moved
back to Star Trek.
For example:  Deanna Troi, you will remember, was clearly a chocoholic.
As to in jokes, I *have* been posting here in Trek since 1989.  One
accumulates memories.   :-)

TREK had has a Moderator and three Vice Moderators for a long time.
They don't always agree, but among them they form a sort of check and
balance.
I have never spent a night in the same room as Zorch.  We have, however,
endured various ordeals together.  :-)
