Lounge is the correct term. In any case, Quark's didn't have Vegas dancing girls. :)

Isn't an intelligent hologram just like Data, but without a permanent physical form?

If we're going to get into Trek concepts that aren't possible with today's technology, we're going to be here a while. ;)

 Yeah under that Logic they shouldn't have had Data on TNG since he was just software and how can you believe in him,he had to have the exact same software so how come he is okay?  In fact he is less believable the the holograms since we never see the computers that store their software so for all we know they could be huge but Data somehow fit all of that programing into into something the size of a human head. If anything Data is the one that is hard to believe in. Not to mention he can somehow eat and drink and have sex,you don't seem to have any problem believing in that stuff.

Also I have to wonder why someone who has something against things that can't be done with today's technology would be watching Sci-Fi in the first place since seeing things that can't be done yet is kind of the whole point of the genre. Oh and under the logic of if you can't believe it you can't like it then I should point out warp drives and transporters can't exist either. So it seems like it's Star trek you have problem with and not the characters or how they were written. There is nothing the writers could do writing Star Trek that would please you under your logic. They would have to stop writing Star trek to make you happy.

Oh and Vic's lounge is nothing like Quarks and Jazz rules. I love Jazz and that whole time period,Vic did a good job with the songs so I even got some enjoyment out of His way which was a pretty awful episode but the scenes with Vic help hold it up and an episode I would give a 1 out of 10 got a 4 out of 10 from me.  That's pretty good.

Oh and I have to wonder what music someone who says they hate all Jazz likes that they think Jazz had no impact on.

Oh and as for fighting for the rights of Holograms you may not think it can be programed but the fact is look at what they had done up to that point and tell me that doesn't make them people who should have rights and shouldn't be used as slave labor,that is what that episode was about and even with as many problems as I have with Voyager I think that last shot did a good job of making that point.
