Visiting Sister for the holiday season. Happened to be watching T.V. and 
they were showing "Where no man has gone before".

One of the Crew, Lt Gary Mitchell, gains super (God-like) powers, as 
does Dr Elizabeth Dehner (eventually). In the near-final scene, 
Elizabeth semi-disables Gary, so Kirk can have some chance in the fight, 
but Gary regains his super-powers and creates a "grave" for Kirk, 
complete with headstone that reads "James R Kirk"

Given this was an early episode (or second Pilot), was this prior to a 
decision being made to go with "James T Kirk" or was it a simple typing 
error (the "R" is next to the "T" on a keyboard) and money was so tight 
that nobody bothered fixing the typo??

Follow-Up set to aus.sf
