whoops, you are too funny! yeah, I guess we need a thread over at current events concerning mankind's role in global warming, do you accept it or not?
oh and Phantom Menace is great! sorry I hate to agree with you.
I think I will rename this thread as the following: "All Things Science Fiction and Fantasy" as it has gone beyond my original intent of just a heads up to Brokies about the 2008 Fantasy convention in Calgary.

I just read William Shatners newest star trek novel ; "Star Trek Academy : Collision Course" about how Jim and Spock met when Jim was 17 and Spock 19 in San Fran. Hmm, when I was 19 I also met an interesting guy in San Fran, to bad he wasn't a vulcan.
also check out Larry Niven's new Known Universe novel, "Fleet of Worlds", wow it is great.....the story of the Puppeteers and their fleet fleeing the galaxy. love that Niven!
and Ben Bova's new story, "The Aftermath", a continuation of the asteroid wars saga.....go find it, if you love hard sci-fi, you'll love this one.

I like the old Star Trek. I used to watch it in repeats all the time in the 1970's. I think my favorite episode was CITY ON THE EDGE OF FOREVER. Joan Collins was in that episode.
brokeplex:
Bingo, that is one of my favorites as well. I especially like the sad ending. Helen Keiler's life sacrificed so that Earth can avoid a nuclear war in the 1940's! Wow, I still remember seeing that episode in the 1960's as it spurred my interest in time travel sci-fi and the alternate universe sci-fi genre. For days after I saw that episode I was babbling to Chris about how great it was, he finally told me to shut up! ha,ha.......
brokeplex:
Frank Gorshen was cool in that episode. Wasn't he also the "Riddler" on the 1960's Batman tv series?
