The complete screen and stage credits of the Star Trek cast is an FAQL

First, I noticed that you said Anonymous.  FYI, it is anonymous...not
caps.  Second, occasionally during working hours, (700-1800), there may
be too much anonymous ftp traffic. (You shouldn't be trying to do this
during work hours anyways :-)  )  The powers that be may be regulating 
anonymous ftp's since many users cannot regulate themselves.  This is an
important note.  Do NOT tie up the site during work hours, or the site
will be shut down and then everybody will be SOL.

They probably figured that out in Assignment: Earth. Spock said that
he and Kirk were just a part of what happened. And in "A Matter of Time,"
Picard finally decided that everything he does shapes the future, and
so lost all qualms about asking "future boy" (don't remember the character
name) for help.

If this has been covered before, I'm sorry.  But I've been away for most of
the summer.

The VHS video release of STVI:TUC states that it has two additional minutes
of film not seen in theaters.  Where is this footage?  My memory of the
theatrical version is a little fuzzy as I only saw it once and is further
distorted by the fact that I read the novel afterward.

After watching the entire video version, I was still looking for the extra
footage.  The only thing I could possibly think of was the scene with the
officer describing Operation Retrieve or some such to the Federation
President.

Please e-mail if possible, elsewise post.  Thanks.

Wow. Someone else said he died in a motorcycle accident.  Was he

Hi,

     As was mentioned earlier, TNG takes place roughly 80 years after TOS.
According to the 20th Anniversary special, hosted by Patrick Stewart, the
actual length of time between TOS and TNG is 78 years. The last Romulan
incident before TNG occured 57 years before TNG...etc.....

     The USS Enterprise NCC 1701-A was a redesigned Enterprise class heavy
crusier. The USS Enterprise NCC 1701-B was an Excelsior class ship. The
USS Enterprise NCC 1710-C was an Ambassador class ship, and of course, the
USS Enterprise NCC 1701-D is a Galaxy class ship, one of three....USS
Galaxy and USS Yamato were the other two.....

I'm not sure what the question is.  If you're asking "Why were they
planning an illegal maneuver?" I don't think there's a clear answer
other than service to the team leader's ego.  Despite its illegality,
the stunt was described as the most spectacular that could be
attempted.  Obviously it's dangerous, but isn't that what stunt flyers
thrive on?  Perhaps they were counting on the audience's
overwhelmingly enthusiastic response to preclude discplinary action.

If the question is "Why were they practicing the manuever?" the answer
is simple -- how else are they going to get it right?

Just a thought...

We know that Guinan is on Earth in 1893 or whatever, but how long she
stays on the planet, no one knows.  She was off-planet when the Borg 
destroyed her world and could have met Q anywhere.

But, I think that somehow, if TPTB were to remain consistent, Guinan
would have to leave Earth before the 1930's.  Why?  From something in
"Clues."  Guinan snaps her garter belt (when playing "Gloooria.. from
Cleeeveland!" on the holodeck) and states that she didn't know what to
do with them.  Well, if she'd stayed on Earth much longer after TA, then
she'd probably come into contact with garter belts more frequently.

Or, wouldn't she have come across them in 1893?  Is this proof that she
has to get off planet, or is it YATI?  Or is it just the ramblings of
a procrastinating college student with nothing better to do than drink
too much coffee and think about Star Trek?

I don't know.  It's just food for thought, y'all.

(Btw, nice to see Tim Lynch back.  Hope he brings some sanity and
intelligence back into the hierarchy.)

Well, we go back to the fact of TNG being a TV show.  The holodeck is simply
more visually appealing to watch on TV rather than these Borg-ish cortical
stimulation devices like we've seen in (ugh!) "The Game".  Besides, if these
things are portable, then nobody on the ship would ever be working! :)

While we're at it, I wanted to mention that Lunar Models' latest flyer has
several re-releases and New kits for the avid ST modeler.  This is not a
testimonial or even a recommendation, but for those of us out there with a
habit to feed (mine seems to be buying the kits, actually assembling them
is another matter :-).  I wanted to point out a supplier for this particular
jones.

The re-releases include the Bird of Prey (which I'm pretty sure is the Movie
one versus the TOS Romulan one), "Nomad", Avenger (aka Reliant, I know, I
called about it) Conversion kit, and a 41" Excelsior.  Somone else mentioned
last november or thereabouts that his copy of the BOP was not very good.  Not
having ever built a resin based model, I don't know if the problems he
described is endemic to the kit or his particular copy.  They're also pricey,
but that's the problem with exclusivity.

The New kits are several accurizing kits for the Bridge & the TOS Big-E.  The
descriptions of the 3! kits tells me the originator has done his/her
research.  There are parts to fix upper and lower saucer domes (clear),
secondary hull forward cap, deflector dish, warp engine end cap(s), reactor
loops, and sensor spikes.  All three stages of the Enterprise from pilot to
regular series filming is represented.

Again, this is not a testimonial or a recomendation from a satisfied
customer.  I am pleased that they sent me a catalogue update just so I know
what's out there, but am not so wild about the 10! week wait for delivery.
I ordered the Avenger Conversion Kit but have about 9 weeks more of waiting...

Since I know someone is bound to ask:

Before you can get a meaningful answer to this question, you have to
define what you mean by "after TOS".  The original series is not a point
in time, but a period lasting three years.  If you use "TOS" more
broadly to refer to all of the stories involving Kirk and his crew, you
are talking about a period of 25 years.

The first-season TNG Writer/Director's Guide mentioned a number of years
that had passed "since the time of Kirk and Spock", but what does *that*
mean?  As we saw in "Unification", Spock is still around.  For all we
know, Kirk is too.

The simplest and most easily verified answer I know is that 100 years
pass between "Journey to Babel" and "Sarek".  We know this because
Sarek's age is given (in Terran years) in both episodes.  In "Journey to
Babel", it's 102 and a fraction years; in "Sarek", it's 202 and a
fraction.
