Apparently so.  The original Star Trek, which used to be on 3 times a day,
has become scarce on Connecticut air waves, so my Trek trivia is a liitle
rusty.  The hint re: Whom Gods Destroy seems to have worked.  At least
partially.  Og got his sight back, but then mumbled something about a
prisoner in Doom.  "He has your sight."  Then the idols vanished.  Well,
I'm not blind, and I released the standard prisoner from Doom, but nothing
special happened.  Yeah, I know about the Scales of Judgment.  Unless their
is a prisoner at the center of the Endless Spiral which I can't get into
yet (the center).  Apparently the Canine has the key.  I haven't found any
canine, and I've been just about everywhere.  Also can't find Gold msgs 3 & 9
which makes me think I've missed a few places.  Grumble.
  But back to the subject at hand.  Star Trek references.  In Doom there is
a message: "For the world is hollow and I have touched the sky." The name of
an ST episode.  Also one of the hooded figure's colors is Dilithium white.
Anyone spot any other refs.
