I was concerned about DS9 for a while...and really leary about Worf showing
up there. But it seems to shaping up quite nicely. And Worf is finding a
friend in Dax...it's interesing how quickly he replaced Deanna Troy, isn't
it?

I really like Battlestar Galactica...but then I was a teenage with a HUGE

Nope; I've never cared for Hogan's style. Nothing specific I can point to - it

I'll have to dig out my tape of ALL GOOD THINGS to be sure, of course. But
based on the end of GENERATIONS, with the Enterprise D declared "scrap/no
salvage attempt" it looks like a "refitted" E-D is definitely not a possibility
for the "core" timeline.

If possible, I'd like to buy some copies on tape, but I'm afraid the NTSC

How do you know that UFO's aren't for real? Just because you haven't seen one?!
They don't do requests! Don't you think it's a bit NAIVE to think that
there AREN'T any civilisations with a higher tech-level than ours, or that there
aren't any other at all?
There will always be people that wants to draw attention, especially in this
form, but there will always be a few percent left of unexplained cases...
You'll probably say " One helluva scam! ", when instead you should go out
on the porch some starry night and think: " What DID those people really see? ".
Maybe you'll get lucky. I did, and I WAS NOT under any kind of influence, nor
tired, I can assure you.
I didn't get afraid either. " Of course, it was hundreds of feet away! " maybe
you'll say, but to tell you the truth; if it had landed, I'd approach it. I
didn't get scared, I got curious AND amazed. You'd have been to...
I don't know about the invasion rumours... Why would they?
