Before you start praising Kirk again, we must first acknowledge those crew members who took the brunt of punishment while Kirk was being macho. Have you *ever* seen Chekov win a fight? I can think of two different episodes right off the bat where he's tortured ("Mirror" & "Dove"). And what about Scotty? In both "Adonais" and "Changeling", he gets flung several feet through the air by bolts of unspecified destructive energy. That out of the way, my most memorable Kirk fight scene is after he calls Spock a "computerized half-breed" and "a traitor". I never knew that he bounced off of walls so well. -- Mark A. ...uw-beaver!ssc-vax!adolph "When a fly lands on the ceiling, does it do a half roll or a half loop?"
