My sentiments precisely.

What a truly pathetic episode, methinks the script writers were on
strike or at the very least, had a mental block ?

It is no wonder this episode rates absolute highest on the "wish you'd
never made it" list.  A truly more pathetic episode there has never
been.

We were all waiting for riker to turn his head sharply :-)

God, I hate Troi.  

I also just hated the approach to quarantine, like Data (or Geordi, cant
remember, trying to forget) running through the ship holding the "thing".
Great going guys. UGH UGH UGH UGH

If I did not have a strong stomach I would have been onto  my forth
barf bag before it was over.

Rating: Waste of video tape.

Yup, every aspect sucked badly.
I've always thought that their tendency to gayly beam down
to every planet without seeming to even cursorily check for
dangers such as disease or predators was a bit dodgy.
I justified it as a cinematic trick that was rationalised
by saying that with the transporter they can beam out of danger
from predators and they are safe from disease due to the screening process.
However, here they had a danger that was proven to be able to
bypass the screens. Did they so much as send down someone in
a protective suit? Did they send someone trained in dealing 
with dangerous environments? Did they send even
send down someone fairly expendable in case of accident?
No they send down the Chief Engineer, who grabs it
with a pair of tweezers while relying on the proven safety method
of having Data grab the vine.
I think they stuck it in a test tube once they had it.
But he wasnt even wearing a pair of gloves and you'd expect
to contain a known dangerous biological hazard in
something a little more secure than a testtube.
They didnt even bother to clean contaminants off the outside before
beaming up.
Once they established that it seemed to be poisoned by endorphins,
did they even try injecting him with a few. No they didnt seem to
think of it.

While there are certainly realism problems that are difficult
to fix for cinematographic reasons such as the fact that all
the locations generally look pretty much the same, all the aliens
look pretty much the same, you never see large cities or meet very
many people etc, consistency problems like these would be so
easy to fix if they just thought about it a bit.

How about the last eposide with combat simulation, "Peak Performance"
or some such. Having introduced the idea of putting images on
the Enterprises screens due to knowing the security codes, precisely
what was the justification for being able to do the same with the
Ferenegi ship, Hmmmn?

I have seen all of season three, and yes, it does pick up, in fact it is
considered by a lot of people to be the best season!  It has some brilliant
episodes in it.  So maybe Channel 9 will put in into a decent time slot, and
not edit it. (wishful thinking)

I know a really good place for your old SF mags.
 
a) The SUtekh library. SUtekh is Sydney Uni's Sci-Fi / Roleplaying club, and
we already have a decent sized collection of old mags (1965-80) that could
be built upon. I think we could arrange to pay for shipping. THe only
problem is that some of the committee members may not agree that this is a
good thing for us to do.
 
b) Alternatively, I'm also doing a History and Philsophy course in 3rd year
at SydUni, and there is an option on Science in Literature that has a sf
component. I'm sure they would be quite interested as they alreafy use the
sf collection in Fisher Library (SydUni library) rare books collection-
supposedly the largest sf collection in the Southern Hemisphere (43000
items?)

I do not know if this the place to post this, but, did anyone out there
happen to record the 3/11/92 episode of Raven and/or Special Squad??

My videorecorder decided to get dirty heads during the first one and hence
both are now unwatchable.

On the subject of Special Squad, does anyone know how many episodes were made
back in 1984 (AUST series with Alan Cassell, John Dietrich).  I have counted
around 31 so far.  Due to the relatively short run of the series back then, 
most of the repeats now are episodes that have never been screened.

Thanks in advance...

I thought Wesley was to vanish in season three.  Oh well.  

I wonder if Wesley is going to get an "A" for his project which just
*happens* to have created an entirely new civilisation of intelligent
beings which seem to be the first example of fully-fledged Von Neumann
machines. Nah!  Sloppy experimental technique, B+  :)

I found the last bit about Wesley and "that girl" being observed by his

Wow a resonable plot, Wesley was not too much of a dork (well okay, a

The Valhalla Cinema is in Glebe Point Rd. Glebe. Glebe is an inner city
suburb just near Sydney University. From recall you can catch a bus
along George Street, they keep changing the roads here in Sydney and as
I drive I don't know if the bus routes have changed.

There isn't any train stations at Glebe itself.

Hope this is of help.

At the Sun product release in Sydney yesterday the Sun Sales bods
were saying the LX would sell for between $9500 and $10000 Australian
($9995 I imagine) but didn't quote a price for the Classic. I imagine
that the Classic will come in below the IPC as that is where Sun have
placed it in their product range. I think this will also push the price 
of an ELC down as well. I supppose we will here more about this soon.

Some other interesting things that came out of the Sun product release
yesterday were:

* Sun have release the SPARCcenter2000 in the US with a base configuration
of 2 SuperSPARC chips but here in OZ they are only offering a base 
config with 4 SuperSPARC chips - Too bad if you only want 2 but then I suppose
you would probably look at the 670 or 690 then.

* The Sun bod mentioned the Solaris2.1 release but never gave us any details.
I have since heard almost from the horses mouth that Solaris2.1 will not be
available in Oz until April '93. What happens with the LX and classic which
are supposedly shipped with Solaris2.1 pre-install I'm not sure.
 Anyone have any idea why the late release of Solaris2.1 in Oz when the 2.1
release has been announced in the US as available "by the end of the year" ????

Hi, there,

We are now in recession, of course. That is why we are still using our old 
SUN 3/60 and try to make best out of it. Unfortunately, the optical mouse 
PAD was stolen last week. I rang Sun but this old type pad was no longer 
available. We have to purchase the whole keyboard+mouse kit for Sun 4 to 
replace it and it would cost $350+. You guys can see that this extra cost 
would make our recession worse. Please help me to save the world! Anyone out 
there has the old optical pad (for low dense system mouse for sun) and not 
in use, don't throw away. We will buy it. Anyone who knows where I can find 
any system mouse supplier please let me know as well!

Thanks in advance.

Chris

Toner cartridges for the Sparcprinter (which uses a Xerox
print engine) are a leetle expensive, plus I would like
to be a bit 'green' and use recycled cartridges if possible.

Does anyone know of a source of recycled _xerox_ toner cartridges
OR another source at all?

Please email to me (matt@aodc20.aodc.gov.au) and
I will summarise.
