Here's another bit that confuses me just as much as your insistence last
article that Picard doesn't have strength of character.  You've been on 
record saying that you thought TIL was a very good show, yet here you claim
it wasn't "any sort of a character study".  Those two aren't mutually exclusive
by any means, but I have to ask what you thought it *was*.

Curiouser and curiouser...

>TNG's best stories are plot-focused rather than character-focused, 

I tend to disagree.  "The Measure of a Man", "Darmok", "The Inner Light", and
shows of that nature strike me as rather intensely character-focused, and
quietly superb.

>and though
>this is entertaining, it falls well short of the best Trek Classic episodes
>(which tended to be strong in both areas).

Much as it pains me, I'm not taking this bait.  :-)

>(Ever notice how Trek Classic had much wittier

This one I'm taking, Mr. Rooney.  :-)  No, actually, I didn't.  Not when I was
in my teens, and certainly not now.

"Alien Communications Officer" (Jane Wiedlin?) is giving the weather reports

Of course, this is not criticism.  Just another reminder of some institutions

A useful comprimise is to give your child a "normal/common" middle
name that they can choose to use in later life should they wish.

My full name is ...   Linus Edward Alexander Twizell

(Linus after Linus Pauling the nobel prize winner, or Linus Yale the inventor
of the Yale lock, or the Roman senator, but definitely not after 
Linus Van Pelt from "Peanuts").

When I was about 11 I got fed up with being asked "where's your blanket?"
and used Alexander for a while, but I soon went back to Linus as it's a
NICE name IMHO, and people don't forget it easily. An unusual name is a
conversation opener, but at the same time I was glad to have the middle
names to "escape" to *if* I wanted.

This is not a flame, nor is this directed at Michael.  It was just a 
convenient opportunity to point out that not all of us will see
the ending on Monday (for instance, here in Pittsburgh, it will be shown
the following Sunday).  Since many of us will see the episode much later than 
the rest of you and, since during the season as many as three new episodes 
will be under discussion at any time, it behooves us all to shield information
from current episodes from those who want to be surprised about episode N
but still want to discuss episode N-1 on r.a.s.current.

Therefore: TA-DA!  Introducing the new R.A.S.* SPOILER LIST!

This list discusses spoilers, how to protect them, and why.  Essentially,
this list includes all the information about spoilers from the old
netiquette list.  Another list, the new R.A.S.* NETIQUETTE LIST, now 
contains solely items related to netiquette, flamewars, etc.  I hope that
this split of the original list will make it easier for people to find
the information for which they are looking.

The only non-humanoid important character I can think of are possible
the Sheliak from "Ensigns Of Command" or the Fish Guys in the Lwaxana
Troi episode.  Anyways, I just saw The Last Starfighter on TV last night
and I must say that those aliens they had were pretty cool.  My all time
favs were the brown-scaled guy and the bad guys with the eyes slightly
more spaced out than us humans.  They were pretty good, also considering
they were humanoids.

Besides, non-humanoid characters like Snufalupagus on Sesame Street
would be totally stupid and fake looking.  Either that or they would
look slightly fake and only good for far away shots like the space
faring alien from the season 4 episode where Leah Brahms comes aboard...
Sorry, I'm bad with episode names today!!! :-)

	Actually, if that's the case, the Borg have been around for quite

	He then went on to say that no one is quite sure when the company
	originated, nor who runs it...  according to some sources,  the
	president, and all the suits that run the place(s) never leave,
	and they never make public appearances...

	As I understand it, however, they do receive a lot of middle of the 
	night shipments by helicopter (or what appears to be...  all the 
	flashing lights and noise makes it hard to tell).  And they have
	a main compound with very tight security...  No one except the
	guards are allowed onto the grounds...  and the guards wear these
	really strange outfits...  supposedly they enhance the guard's

I thought that Redemption ended season 4 and started season 5. You

two parter that was shown in the midst of the season.
