Re:  Paul Onnen's remarks on "Where No Man Has Gone Before"
 
The doctor's name was Mark Piper.  I'm not sure how many episodes
it took for Spock to stop yelling.  He yells once or twice in
"The Corbomite Manuever", but not so vigorously.  Incidentally,
I think I know WHY he was yelling.  Except for one or two
anomalous incidents where he yells at Kirk over ship's intercom,
he yells when he's at his science station and needs to be heard
by people in the center seat or at the helm-and-navigation
console.  It's possible that Leonard Nimoy thought that the
size of the Bridge necessitated raising one's voice to be
heard across it.  When Spock is in the center seat, he doesn't
yell at the people at helm and navigation.  This is, at least,
a comforting theory.  What I want to know is, how long did it
take Spock to stop GRINNING without benefit of drugs, spores,
or alien beings?  (He grins in "Mudd's Women" as he hands
Mudd et al. over to the unsuspecting Kirk.)
 
St. Olaf College, huh?  I went to Carleton.
