609: '''Statistical Probabilities''' ''[[1997]] [[]]''
609: '''Statistical Probabilities''' ''[[1997]] [[November 22]]''


(First watched 2008-07-)
(First watched 2008-07-28)  Bashir meets his... less successful brothers-in-genetics.  A group of sort of Super Rainmen that begin providing Starfleet with situational analyses and future forecasts regarding the war against the Dominion, which takes a bad turn when they forecast that the Federation has no chance, and the best bet for preventing deaths is either to surrender or help the Dominion win as quickly as possible.  That one of their own group foiled their plan goes far to making the point that, as Dr. Bashir said, if they couldn't even predict what someone in the same room was going to do, shouldn't that cast some doubt on their forecasts for the galaxy at large?
 
Interesting, but I'm not sure I like Dr. Bashir being the only non-dangerous genetically engineered person... ever.  Khan's group, takes over the world in the 20th century and causes havoc in the 23rd century.  In Enterprise, the offshoot of Khan's group causes havoc in the 22nd century.  On DS9 now, even the group that doesn't seem to want to rule everything almost ends up giving the Federation away because they think it's in everyone's best interest.
