Has anyone ever asked Tom Wright what he thinks about it?

When you read the script for the episode Tuvix, or when you watched the show, what was your conclusion on the ethical problem? I thought it was wrong of them to kill Tuvix. Nelix and Tuvok were dead, killing Tuvix to bring them back was murder. Im interested in your opinion.

There was a small voice inside of me that agrees with you but I also knew that if I had two loved ones that would disappear forever, I might have to make an unpleasant but necessary choice. It remains an interesting dilemma.

two loved ones

Eh, calling Neelix a "loved one" is a bit of a stretch.

I will not stand for this Neelix slander. He is a loved one and is wonderful. Maybe too colorful at times, maybe tried too hard at times, but did his best and was a fabulous addition to the crew.

Indeed, for what was such a dark, dangerous journey at times it was nice to have someone around who brings some pep.
