* Is Nothing Sacred?, editorial by Germaine Best ("I am not advocating banning aggressive toys, violence on TV or hiding the concept of enemy aliens. What is needed in toys and TV is balance. There needs to be examples of the possibility of benevolent aliens. If there are toys and shows about bad-guy aliens, there should be toys and shows about good-guy aliens. Star Trek should not be the media's only example of harmony among the species. These items are perpetuating the war-play attitudes of our past. Our paranoia is showing. The SF outlet that we are using for it will affect generations to come. History repeats itself like a xerox copier. If we are going into the "endless void" we cannot do it with the attitude of human supremacy and Manifest Destiny.") (79)
