As all die-hard Star Trek Next Gen fans know, in addition to being Father's Day, today is also Captain Picard Day...Just a refresher for those who don't know, June 16th was chosen due to it's equivalent to Stardate 47457.1 referenced in the 7th season episode 'Pegasus" - Patrick Stewart's Picard has always been a 'Father Figure' for me...And I believe for @A_Ron_Hubbard. I thought we should give him a "shout out"....Here's a video clip for nostalgia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiKwAS1qaCk

    For anyone curious, here is the best source I've found for how the derived "Picard's Day" from the given stardate. My conclusion was, after reading as a serious Star Trek fan, that stardates are mostly bullshit but that Picard is cool and is deserving of a day of recognition. I don't know why, since it was so close to June 17, they just didn't make it Sir Patrick's actual birthday of July 13th!

    A stellar idea @A_Ron_Hubbard - I agree we should just celebrate it on July 13th from now on!
