Oh, yes it was certainly the first episode *broadcast*.  It was not the first
one filmed.

Allan Asherman's _Star_Trek_Compendium_ (to my knowledge the best readily-
available Trek Classic source available, given that the _Concordance_ is
*not* readily available to most people, including yours truly) has an
appendix which lists the air dates of all Trek Classic episodes.  The main
listings for all episodes are given in production order (though I forget how
"production order" is defined, since many episodes were not finished in 
postproduction in the same order that filming began).

Incidentally, most Trek Classic reruns these days (that I've seen) are done
in production order (coinciding with that in the _Compendium_).

Does this mean you will stop watching TNG or ever watch DSN?  A lot of people
seem to think they can (or will) watch one or the other.  Is there not room
for fans for all?  We have all complained about the lack of good SF and now
we have the opportunity to watch 3 new shows per week.  Why all the fighting
about what will be the best?  Let's just watch all and enjoy them for what
they are (or will be)?

In "I Borg" Hugh says that the Borg "assimilate civilizations, not
individuals."  By that statement we might be able to assume that 1) the 
Klingons and the Romulans also have had some success in fighting off the 
Borg or 2)the Borg just don't know those races exist.  The second statement
might be wrong; the Borg could know about other races from Picard's experience,
but there's really no way of telling.

If there were Klingon, Romulan or Ferengi in the Borg collective, we might not
be able to tell since it seems to me that the Borg fundamentally look the same.
Why did they take a humanoid shape?  Convenience, maybe?  Or possibly the Borg
was a humanoid culture before they "evolved" into a collective.

Not again please!  We have just gotten over what all of the TNG cast members
have done.  Anyone who has watched any T.V. in the past 10 years knows who
Brooks and Auberjois are, and if they don't they can try to find tapes of

According to the San Jose Mercury News (California), The crew of

Federation starship that is 75+ years old.  When Geordi and company
beam over to investigate, they find that the transporter was in
the middle of beaming somebody over when the ship was abandoned.
Somehow or another Geordi gets the transporter working again, 
and out pops Mr. Scott.

My guess is the ship was damaged in combat somehow, and poor Scotty

Nope.  I think the word you're looking for is "moderated" rather than

Styles (Stiles?) refers most likely to the Lieutenant in the episode
'Balance of Terror'.  He's the one who was prejudiced against Spock
especially when he realized that the Romulans looked just like
Vulcans.

The actor who played Kevin Riley said in an interview (in Starlog 1 or
2 years ago) that he has absolutely no interest in acting again.  It's
too bad he wasn't in the movies.  I think he's one of the more intersting
guest characters (and well acted) in TOS.  I'd sure like to see Finnegan
also!

OK, so this sig caught my eye yesterday (I'm catching up on old messages) and
set me to punning...


"He's fed, Jim." - McCoy after making sure Spock had had his food supplement.


"He's Jed, Jim." - McCoy introducing Beverly Hillbillies' elder Clampett to
                   the good captain on a crossover episode.

"He's shed, Jim." - McCoy discovers another fascinating fact about tribbles.


"He's led, Jim." - McCoy reminding Kirk that Spock has already had his turn
                   at the front of the Enterprise's Momba dance line.

"He's lead, Jim." - McCoy mis-diagnoses Lt. Commander Data, who has gone back
                    in time in an effort to stop endless punning on TOS.

"He's wed, Jim." - McCoy informing Kirk as to why the new ensign won't be 
                   competing with the captain for ladies' affections.

and finally,
"He's red, Jim." - McCoy states the obvious when Kirk and co. go back in
                   time and meet Nikita Kruschev.

Sorry folks. I know there are many more permutations, but I thought I'd be
merciful and stop there.
