Hello World!

Only a quick update today because I'm currently feeling like I'm crossing the English channel in a P&O ferry during a very bad storm. Anyone who has had the misfortune to endure that particular experience will no doubt sympathise with my predicament, especially since I'm on dry land.

Trek Two Years Ago

These were some of the major news items on September 24, 2000:

• J. Michael Straczynski On Star Trek
  During a chat at SciFi.com, Babylon 5 creator J. Michael Straczynski was asked his opinion on Star Trek.

  If I had a show in which I *knew* it would be renewed each season, that had a name going in that guaranteed an audience, that had a huge empire behind it, I'd take every opportunity to USE that venue to push stories to the wall, to do experimental stories, controversial stories, stories with teeth and claws and passion because in most situations.

• Rick Berman Interviewed
  Executive producer Rick Berman spoke briefly about the conclusion to Voyager's final season. "I'm not telling, but the season is going to end in an unexpected way."

  More news can be found in the archives.

  T'Pol tells Archer and Trip a story about her great-grandmother T'Mir and three other Vulcans who made first contact with humans after crash landing in a small Pennsylvania town in the 1950s. T'Pol's story shocks Archer and Trip because her account is much earlier and very different from what history books reported.
