Ki> Hi guys,
Ki> With Star Trek's 50th anniversary looming (and the new movie opening
Ki> today), I wrote a story for our newspaper here in St. Louis: 50 things
we
Ki> still love about Star Trek.

Ki> Love to know what you would have chosen differently!
There are quite a few "favorites" to go through.. Admittedly I haven't gone
through all of them yet, but it seems some of these are a bit arbitrary.
Favorite Spock skill or Capt. Kirk skill? And favorite OSHA violation? I
didn't know people really talked about that. :) Also, some of those
favorites came up as a black rectangle for me and didn't have anything in
them.
Favorite omnipotent alien: I agree, although how many omnipotent aliens were
there in Star Trek? I remember maybe one other that could be considered
omnipotent (the cloud that the Enterprise D ran into that presented a face
of itself to communicate with the crew toward the end).
Favorite character fusion: Again, how many character fusions were there in
Star Trek? Tuvix is the only one I remember off the top of my head.
A favorite Star Trek movie could be debated forever.. I thought Star Trek
IV was pretty good, but personally, since I watched a lot of TNG, I liked
First Contact. I thought Generations was also pretty good, although I know
many would disagree with me. Just my personal feeling & opinion.
In 2006, someone made a 40-year Star Trek tribute video that I thought was
pretty good. I grew up watching Star Trek (mainly starting with TNG), and I
know it sounds corny, but watching this video got me almost teary, since I
feel like Star Trek has given us so much:
