We do see the origins of it, though. It obviously evolved from the Vulcan protocols that T'Pol mentioned. Another thing that apparently came from the Vulcans is the letter designation for planet types. The pre-industrial planet they visited was referred to as a (Masara?) class planet, suggesting that Starfleet will take the Vulcan terms for planet types, and eventually abbreviate them to "M-class", "K-class", etc. ______________________________________________________________________ Steve Sloan .........
