net.startrek --May 1984 --by Stewart Wiener (princeton!tilt!smw) o STAR TREK III: THE SEARCH FOR SPOCK. The spoilers keep getting more and more detailed as the June 1 release looms closer. Some people know the whole story already. Discussion of the fate of the starship Enterprise, the means by which Spock might still live, and the crimes of Admiral Kirk. o *** SPOILER, IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE TV ADS (rot13) *** Cnenzbhag vf ehaavat nqiregvfrzragf juvpu tvir njnl sne gbb zhpu: "Wbva hf sbe gur SVANY iblntr bs gur Fgnefuvc Ragrecevfr." E.V.C. Zbfg bs arg.fgnegerx vf nyernql va zbheavat. o Review of the novel "The Final Reflection" by John M. Ford. Set 50-60 years before normal ST, it shows the Klingon culture very well. A brief lexicon of the Klingonese language was posted, compiled from this book. One of the very best Trek novels ever. o Trivia, e.g., McCoy's "I'm a doctor, not a -------!" lines. o Praise for the DC Comics' series of Star Trek comic books; the writer is doing excellent characterization, and the project shows fantastic attention to the small details that only devout Trekkers would notice. o More trivia, on the source of a Vulcan name seen in the last comic: Xon. o The chain of command. Who comes after Kirk, Spock, and Scott, and why. Why Uhura never got to command the ship (until the animated version). o A request for the different classes of ship sparks renewed flaming of the Starfleet Technical Manual (a bogus, albeit creative, reference).
