Why I want to live on the USS Enterprise

Enterprise-D.jpg

1. there are replicators
2. holodecks
3 the perfect mix of lights indoors all the time and perpetual night outside. It's like the perfect metaphor for the human condition.
4. You get to live next to people without having to share bathrooms.
5. best view in the universe
6. 24 hour everything.
7. free transportation.
8. I'd move anywhere that had shuttlecraft and/or phasers

Really, it's the perfect urban living environment with all of the major energy and perishable concerns already dealt with. The apex of urban design and public planning. Plus, the doors open and close automatically. And they aren't transparent. Why do doors on earth seem to do both or neither. I want opaque, self-opening doors. Not too much to ask for as it is 2005. We were promised flying cars, robot maids, and the metric system. As an American, I have none. Not cool.
