So while the consensus seems to be that it is the mouse granulatiry of the
NTSCized version that makes some of the destinations hard/impossible to get
to, is there any playaround?  Or do you just lose when the first un-mouseable
destination comes up?

What about all of the apparently-secondary stuff that's going on, are you
supposed to do something about it all?  For example:

  -  Scotty says you should take better care of the ship.  Is that warning
     telling you something?  Similarly, McCoy tells you to watch your health.
     Can you *do* anything about your health?  I assume that these are just
     'distractions': things to drag you off of the bridge, yes?
  -  What can you do about the crew's morale?  It suggests that you should
     do something [and in one "you can do better"], but can you actually DO
     anything?
  -  Under what circumstances does the science position help?  [mostly
     it's never really 'helped' by identifying anything [does anything really
     NEED identifying?] and I don't think I've ever seen there be any
     'suggestion'.
  -  What about all of the miscellaneous messages: one turbolift or another
     being repaired, uhura singing, someone [chekov and sulu??] playing
     space balls, etc.

thanks..
