From the sound of it, it looks as if they - RTD and Cook - were thinking specifically of an Star Trek Enterprise crossover, to which I say, Archer certainly had it coming. Though I could also see a succesful DW/TNG crossover but not DW/DS9 for the same reason why Q did not work on DS9 but worked very well indeed on TNG. (Plus I've seen Patrick Stewart and David Tennant work together and thought "'Claudius and Hamlet should have more scenes", so...)
Re: Sisko and Kirk: allow me to play Devil's Advocate. While either of them would undoubtedly have won a manly punching game (unless Ten used those Three memories of Venusian Aikido, that is *g*), it's a bit pointless. If you mean, who would have won a battle of wits, well, your idea of Sisko as the ultimate in Starfleet badassery not withstanding, Eddington was able to trick him not once but twice (and the Sisko proved a very sore loser indeed), not to mention that his attitude towards beings for whom time passes in a non-linear fashion tends to be not bad-ass at all but referential. As for Kirk, James T., I do remember the Slow Motion Picture (wish I didn't), where he was every pompous know it all Admiral you can imagine towards Decker the Younger. (And to its credit, the Slow Motion Picture actually dared to let Kirk be wrong in handling the refitted Enterprise!) And then there were those fun times where he read the American constitution out loud (or was it the declaration of indepencence) to the natives. My guy Picard was by no means the first captain of the Enterprise who could be pompous.
Never Ending Sacrifice: sounds like a must read, even if Our Una had not written it!
