		Star Trek can never lower itself to a level with 
	Star Wars -- it has one important element which Star Wars
	never had -- that being good acting and character development.
	( Can you imagine Spock turning out to be Kirk's Half brother
	and Scotty their uncle? -- good grief! )

		Netlanders here seem to be worried that if the Federation
	goes to war in Star Trek IV, we will have instant Star Wars.  I
	don't think so.  Why?  
			      --  Do you think that Paramount could afford
					  it?

		Never-the-less, I DO want to see something to this effect
	-- don't get me wrong -- I don't want to see an all-out bloody
	confrontation -- but I do believe it is about time for some
	sort of skirmish ( with the gang involved, of course ) in which
	the final result would be lasting Galactic ( to the extent that
	it then exists ) peace and isn't that what we all want!?
