Well, what to say?  It was GREAT!  I won't bore anyone with a review,
spoilers, etc. but I will say that the story is good, the FX great, and
the characters interesting (I'm anxious to see how the actors will grow
into their roles--and vice versa).

One note of interest: in the first Cardassian ST:TNG episode O'Brien had
two full pips, in DS9 he wears one half pip.

Gene Roddenberry would be proud of this new show; it is very impressive.

What I don't get is if Odo can be separable parts (bag and chips) what
happens if a piece is misplaced??  I mean, what if the Cardassians
didn't win ALL the chips that made up Odo?  Or someone dropped a chip?

Also, if he can separate himself, then that explains his ability to
emulate things that are much smaller in volume and mass than his
complete whole, cuz he can just send his arm or something to be
something ... opens a lot of possibilities ...

Avery Brooks did a good job during the wormhole moving from scene to scene,
emotion to emotion, but I can't help but wonder what Patrick Stewart would
have done with the opportunity.  I remember Michael Piller saying he'd love
to put Stewart in a room for an entire episode...looks like Brooks got a
good chunk of time...I hope Stewart does get a similar opportunity in STNG
at some point!!!!

	I don't know what I have to gain by saying this, but I predict that 
*Star Trek: Deep Space Nine* is going to be somewhat of a failure and not
last too long ... maybe two seasions at the most.
	The major reasons being, right now, that the plot devices aren't
adequate; mainly because the actual station doesn't go places ... and if
characters leave aboard a shuttle, then that will be too inconsistent with
the original intent.  Plus, cost of production is too great.  It will have
some interesting things, of course, but those will mostly be appreciated by
real Star Trek fans ... 
 	Perhaps when I'm right, I'll get some small satisfaction out of 
making this prediction.  If I'm wrong, no one will remember anyway.

Subject: Re: COC summary wanted! (speculative spoiler)

I was interested in this summary, having missed part I.  In the part II summary,i think that an important detail was left out.  In the scene
in which picard breaks, we see him from the time he wakes up
until the time his attention is directed to the lights.  In fact,
when he first wakes up, he is immediately distracted by the pain
inducing device that was left in front of his face.  Shortly after
that the interrogator enters and picard turns away from the lights
for a while.  In that last scene, we are never shown the lights
ourselves, but there is no reason to believe that there were realy 4.
My take is that picard was broken, but only by being tricked into thinking
he already had been.  Perhaps there will be a callback to this in a future
episode.

No....just a little nervous.  As well he should be, since Picard knows what

Sisko.  I liked that little tie in the writers set up.

I'm pretty sure that O'Brien said she was "threatening" to go live with
her mother, becuase their quarters were in such awful shape.  Then again,
we never saw her.  Was it just me? Or did O'Brien's voice drop into something
a little more Irish every-now-and-then?  His character was definitly a lot
rounder in DS9.  The kicking of the Cardassian Transporter was classic.

One more thought:  The episode, esp. the beginning, seemed really choppy.
The amount of commercials during the show seems to indicate that the 
original script may have been longer and smoother.  As it was, the entire
deal with the Orbs and the Priestess just kinda happened, and you dealt
with it.  I don't know...ideas?

Re DS9 vs. DSN:

In our own current universe, "DSN" is the acronym for the Deep Space
Network, a consortium of organizations which have resources to track
probes into our current version of "deep space" -- the regions around
and between the planets of our solar system.

One wonders what the research-oriented "deep space network" of the
25th century might be like.  Perhaps they will be doing veryvery long
baseline interferometry of faraway galaxies -- using baselines that
are the distances between star systems!

A preamble!  Ack!  No!  I can hear it now:
