Personally, I liked the first version of ST:3GEN that was posted better than
the touched up one. The second version overstated some things ie. we really
don't have to witness enseign what's-his-name screw up and be transfered
elswhere - it gives the story a more real feal, for in life you often only
catch glimpses of other peoples lives. (I refer to the first episode)

otherwise, I think it a fantastic peice of writing.

Well I'll just post it incase anyone else did not know...This obviously
refers to the original Enterprise's encounter with said race in The Corbomite
Device I believe. Since Kirk was on good talking terms with them at the end
of that episode I see no reason why this would not be true in ST:TNG.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Both of them were wonderful stories, and one thing which generally sets a 
story like this apart from others, is that the characterisations were great.
I believed in the characters, particularly the QL ones.

You know, the raw emotion of this posting is quite evident, but it lacks
the subtle style found in all good literature.  Furthermore, as the use of
slang terminology seems to diminish much of its serious impact.

I'm afraid, IMHO, that I feel this is a very poor example of creative
material and that the author would much better serve the human race by
scrubbing garbage cans for 4.25 an hour.

I suddenly remembered two other examples of computer learning.  In the 
Classic Trek episode, _Where No Man Has Gone Before_, Gary Mitchell spends
considerable time reading through the entire ship's library at incredible
speeds.  Also, in _Space Seed_, Khan also uses the computer to read up
on the past 200 years of Federation History and learns everything about
the Enterprise and how it works.

What changes were REALLY accomplished with the new show?

I just read an interesting post that looked like a cross between Dr. Who,
Star Trek, and Monty Python, obviously written by someone in non-reality
overload.

In a similar vein (or artery, if you prefer), I'd like to suggest a storyboard
idea for this sub.

The idea was first made known to me at Northeastern University, where a
story based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft (horror/fantasy writer of the
early 20th century) was started and continued through many changes of
personnel and several years.  It got thick in places, but it was always
fun.

The previous post looked more like a screenplay - we wrote a story, like a
real book, instead of a screenplay.  If anyone is interested in such an idea, 
either leave me some mail, or start it.  Don't worry about plot, don't
worry about setting - get an idea, write out a few paragraphs, and leave it.
The next person can pick up on that and take it wherever they like.  The plot
develops as the different people get to writing and reading.

Since this is, for some of us, not an online sub, I would suggest no more than
one post per person every two days.  This gives us 'batch' people a chance
to post some meaningful stuff. 

I'll start thinking, tell me if I'm out of line....

                            STOP THE SHIP!  I've gotta see this.
Ship stops on a dime,
half a dozen Daleks roll off the raised 
bridge platform and tumble about the cabin,
tossing Romulans about rather painfully.

	Daleks:  EX-TERM-IN-ATE!!!  WE MUST EX-TERM-IN-ATE!!!

	Romulan Commander: I get the point already! (slips a can-

Mr. Stressen-Reuter,

	I can't think of any episodes off the top of my head from ST-TNG but ST-TOS, episode "The Changling" had Uhura learning in sickbay after Nomad wiped her memory.  Also, in Star Trek IV, the voyage home, Spock was being tested by computers in one scene.
