I like "Miri" because it examplifies the generation gap of the 60's.  If you
will recall, this "problem" was of major concern back then.  This show
has the "onlies" (sp?) so afraid and apart from the "grumps" (sp?)
and it made the real generation gap problem seem trivial.  Yet, Captain
Kirk and crew were able to work things out.

I like "Plato's Stepchildren" and "The Empath" because of their
classic fable basis.  Althought both were perhaps a bit overdone, I
can not find anything wrong with them and many good things.

As far as "Whom the Gods Destroy", this episod contains the classic
3-D chess move password.  I forgot the exact sequence.  I think it was
Queen to Queen's level 3 followed by King to King's level 2.?  In any
case, how could one grow up to be a compatent Trivial Pursuit player
without having seen this episod?  :-)
