In other words, the core-dump did not occur exactly at "REMEMBER", but, rather, right at Spock's death--Spock knew where his Kaatra was to be placed. Upon death, that's where it went. By the way, considering us humans don't go moving our kaatras around, I wonder if anyone has considered the possibility that only Spock' Vulcan half was retained in the McCoy core dump.....that would make a heck of a change in Spock's character for ST4..(half of his personality missing, human denial gone, etc...) About Enterprise destruct: Two separate articles in ?? newspapers said reps from all 3 networks wre trying to convince Star Trek's hierarchy to go back to a regular TV series. and the Enterprise model was megabuck expensive for special effects filming, and the last two movies have been produced through Paramounts TV division, could this indicate a possible return to TV??? I mean, there are certainly several clues which suggest this.........Any comments??? David Whitney !ctvax!uokvax!uok!dwhitney
