Since when is Picard leaving TNG?  Though I have missed a few episodes this 
season, and I just recently began reading this newsgroup, this is the first I 
have heard of this.  If there is anyone out there that has proof that Picard is
leaving, please post it.  These kind of rumors could kill a person ;)

Mikey likes it!  He's actually recanting his criticism of a Star Trek
effort newer than ST:TOF ("The Old Farts") and saying not that it's
just "not bad" but that he actually LIKES it.

When a storm came through and dumped a pile of snow on the ground, I
thought it only meant that winter was truly here.  Little did I know

79 REMEMBER ME

written by Lee Sheldon
directed by Cliff Bole
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate 44161.2: Dr. Crusher's old friend, Dr. Dalen Quaice, is 
leaving his
former home on a Starbase to retire after the recent death of his wife.
He mentions his slowly deteriorating memory, a thought which remains
on Dr. Crusher's mind when she visits engineering to watch Wesley
finish a warp field experiment. But when the Enterprise becomes ready
to leave the Starbase, Wes hastily finishes his experiment, but his 
mother
completely disappears. She, however, is on the Enterprise - so she 
thinks
- and she helplessly watches the entire crew disappear one by one. She 
is,
in fact, inside a warp bubble, and the real crew on the real 
Enterprise must
enlist the help of the mysterious alien known as the Traveler to pull
Dr. Crusher back into reality before her warp bubble shrinks into 
nothingness.
Originally considered as a shipboard B-plot for the episode "Family," 
this
story was given its own episode so as not to distract attention from the
earlier episode's central theme.

TV GUIDE: People aboard the Enterprise are vanishing at an alarming rate,
and no one - except Dr. Crusher - has any memory of their existence.

GUEST CAST: Eric Menyuk (The Traveller), Bill Erwin (Dr. Dalen Quaice),
Colm Meaney (O' Brien)

They aren't officially shuttlecraft.  They called them "Runabout" class
vessels, and from the trailers for next week it looks like they can do
low warp speeds.  Sort of a shuttle's big brother.

   I thought a direct confrontation about Picard's role in Cisco's
wife's death was in order and am disappointed that it didn't happen. 
For a NG viewer, (me)  its important that Picard is not considered
an "evil" or "bad" officer in DS9.  Having said that, I want to say that
it bothers me a little, I don't think the writers are a bunch of
assholes for not doing the storyline the way I would like it.

Help,

   Can someone tell me what the different ship classes are and how they
stack up to one another?  We all know that Galaxy > Ambassador >
Excelsior > Constitution but how do the other classes (e.g. Miranda,
Nebula, and Oberth) fit in?  Which of these are capable of putting up a
fight and which are better off turning tail and fleeing?  Is there any
publication which lists details like crew numbers?
   In the episode ST:TNG episode where O'Brien's former captain invades
Cardassian space and starts wreaking havoc, the captain's ship may have
been of the Renaissance class.  I seem to remember that this ship, which
readily destroyed a Cardassian warship, was not much smaller than the
Enterprise.
    If anyone can make this matter clear for me, I would be really grateful.

Youngster, let me tell you about the old days, before Starr Trek
movies needed numbers.... :-)

In Star Trek -- The Motion Picture, James Kirk was already an
Admiral and Chief of Star Fleet Operations.  If you assume CSFO 
to be analogous to Chief of Naval Operations, that would have
made him the head honcho of Star Fleet.  He voluntarily gave
up his flag rank to command the Enterprise again in TMP.

That "punishment" was along the lines of throwing Briar Rabbit into
the Briar Patch.  Even the Klingons who were present realized that.

Although the explosion of the moon WAS the even which initiated peace
between the Federation and the Klingons, I think we can assume that
working out the details of the peace treaty took quite some time.  When
the battle between the E-C and the Romulans took place, the treaty 
probably hadn't quite been completed.  When the E-C apparently left in
the middle of the fight, this set off a chain reaction which lead to the
alternate future.  Hope this helps.

No, you didn't *hear* Riker answer.  He undoubtedly answered sometime
after the closing credits.  Between the closing credits of one show
and the opening credits of another, there is a long period in which
the characters comb their hair, go to the bathroom, and do a lot of
other things you never actually see them do.  For example, in was
during one of these off-camera periods that Keiko became pregnant. :-)

Because it was in the script.

Illogical.  Illogical.  Norman, coordinate. 

If Picard had not returned, and Star Fleet offered Riker his choice
of commands, he would have picked the Enterprise.  Thus, he would not
have "refused his pick of the litter," thus Star Fleet would not have
that reason for refusing to give him the Enterprise.

This probably comes under the catagory of 'it's so obvious why mention it'.
But I haven't seen any comment on how the CoC episodes drew a clear analogy
between the Cardassians and our (ever lovable) Iraq.

For Example:

A people dominated by a dictatorial military that uses torture as matter
of course.

A people that at one time had a magnificent empire (Babylonia).

A people (or at least the military junta that is in control) that holds a
deep resentment towards more technologically advanced peoples.

One could even imagine that Minos Korva (the planet that Cardassia was poised
to take over) was nothing more than a stand-in for Kuwait.

Anyway something to think about.
