Who's the better Captain Kirk?

A few days ago Yahoo.com had a survey pole on its front page that asked: “Who's the better Captain Kirk, William Shatner or Chris Pine?”   William Shatner overwhelming won with the most votes.  I found Yahoo.com survey pole on this topic very amusing.  I asked myself how could Yahoo.com compare the living legend William Shatner’s role as the iconic Captain Kirk to Chris Pine role as Captain Kirk?   Laugh out loud; I’m such a nerd for even creating and asking myself a question about such a amusing topic.  I found all the Star Trek T.V. shows and movies to be super fantastic.
