Hmmm, maybe I should this with the Boston station WCVB-5 which shows a *REPEAT*
of the previous week Sunday at 11:30 PM after showing it the Saturday before at
7 PM.  The Saturday 7PM could be the repeat and if they get the uplink at the
same time, 11:30 PM Sunday would not be too difficult.

Anyone in Boston area want to help me?

Any hints on how to go about this?

According to Fox 13 (KSTU) the 2 hour premiere for Deep Space Nine
will be aired on Tuesday, Jan. 5 at 7:00 p.m

The regular episodes will air FIRST on Saturdays at 5:00 with
REPEATS on Sunday at 4:00.  This is strange becuase it is just the
reverse of TNG, where the first showing is on Sunday with the
repeat on Sunday.  Sounds like this is going to be confusing.

This info is hearsay only: there are apparently numbered and unnumbered
Enterprise ornaments. Numbered ornaments sell for $250-$300, and the
unnumbered variety for $80-$100. Source of this info was my sister, who
met a Hallmark proprieter in Phoenix, AZ, This fellow had one of the
numbered ornaments but an ex-employee mistakenly sold it for $24.95. My
sister is a reliable source but I don't know about the Hallmark fellow.

	The Universal Translator is just the best example of something
that HAD to be added to the show to try and explain why all aliens spoke
English, there is no scientific bases behind it, no machine can 
possibly translate the speach of a new alien race immediatly from word 1,
let alone make thier lips look like they speak English, and how about all
the instances where the away team is on a planet surface and yet can
understand and speak with aliens. This one is one that will just have to
be ignored, not explained with some pseudo-science. My question is why
did they even try to explain how communication is possible, I would've
just ignored it as it's something that is a big story hole. Unless
they just wanted something that would keep the techno-peasants 
satisfied, and amuse us :-)

	Likewise, we'll never see really mobile, nimble and animated
aliens on the show unless they are humanoid, we won't see 6 armed 
aliens wondering around working with all 6 hands just as well as the
humanoid people do with there's simply because it isn't feasable in
terms of budget, and believability. Hence aliens are usually humanoid,
a gelatinous blob, energy like, or really stiff :-)

Last nights TOS episode on BBC2 was _SoG_, this is the one where Kirk, Spock
and the rest of the principals are captured on a mysterious planet by 
General Trelane (retired), a strange human-looking creature who is fascinated
by the human *sport* of war. Kirk challenges Trelane to a duel and manages to
destroy some of the instruments which were keeping the Big E's crew down on the
planet and everyone beams aboard. Trelane wont let the Big E leave orbit so
Kirk beams down alone to try and get Trelane to let them go, Trelane puts Kirk
on trial and finds him guilty and sentences him to death. Kirk persuades Trelane
that it would be more *sporting* for Trelane to hunt him down. 
Just in the nick of time two disembodies voices turn up, these are Trelanes
parents and they have come to take him away for being a *naughty boy*. A cop-out
ending but never mind.

A fairly good episode, you can see where they got the idea for "Q" from. One thing
I noticed, this planet was supposedly 900 light years from earth and Trelane
could observe the earth of 900 years ago. However, he mentions that he admired
napoleon, now he was around in the 1800's, that would put this episode in the
2700's. I thought TOS was set in around the late 2200's, never mind :-)

Infinite Vulcan: If memory serves, it was Walter "Chekov" Koenig; the
creatures in it were named "retlaws", a palindrome of Walter.

"Ring World Trilogy": It's one word, Ringworld, and there are only two
books, _Ringworld_ and _The Ringworld Engineers_.  We really do need a
third book (or more), but as far as I know LN hasn't ever hinted that
it would happen...

Several authors, actually; it's become a "shared universe"-type series.
