I seem to recall an old episode of Star Trek where Kirk ordered the phasers,
fired in a wide field in pulses.  They came out looking like photons.  I can't
remember which episode it was, but I think that phasers when fired in pulses
would tend to look like photon torps...wouldn't they?

That's my solution to the thing...of course, you never know...the producers 
might've screwed up...eh?
