In Ent there was dr noning sung (sp). He was in his 40's or 50's there. Now if we are to take trek at the timeline then ent is before kirk by a good margin (100 years) i think and Dr dong died in tng as an old man. Now tell me this, how did he live for a few hundreads years (200 or more) till tng era?

The only explaination i can think of is that with the new found genetic enginerring skills he shows in ent rather than the famous scientist in robotics as we knew him from in tng era that he must have performed genetic engineering on himself to make him last that long but the only thing i dont understand is that in order to be genetically engineered you must do it on embro's and you cant do it on full sized and grown lifeforms. Now there is a instance which doc bashire in ds9 had some done when he was a child but i dont really get that episode explantion sorta for genetics.

Ah well lets see what others here have to say with this paradox sorta for Dr sung or however u spell his name lol.

Well the Docter Soong in TNG was his grantkid, i guess.

The episode was on Channel4 this afternoon, and at the very end, Noonien says himself that to be able to complete an artificial lifeform, his work would "Have to be completed by the next generation, possibly the second."

So I guess that confirms what Iwulff just said.
