I had an opportunity this past weekend to attend a Star Trek convention
at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim, California.  The two guest speakers
were Majel Barret Roddennberry and Nichelle Nichols.   Both  were  very
entertaining and spoke well.  Majel told some stories  about  Gene  and
Nichelle told us about her involvement with NASA and  the  people  that
she did recruit for NASA and have taken Shuttle flights.   I  was  very
impressed with both of them.  It is good to see that TREKKERS are still
alive and well!  I do plan to attend another convention when I am able.
Nichelle also stated that she has a movie coming out very soon.   Watch
for it.  Also, she has recorded some music for ST  that  will  also  be
released soon.

Nichelle did mention something about Star Trek IV.   She  said  that  a
story is not fully developed yet, but L. Nimoy  will  direct,  Shantner 
has signed and the whole crew will be in the film.   She also indicated
that the film will not be a downer, but a fun film.   No other  details
were given.  Apparently, Kirk will get out of his difficulties and the
rest of them will be exonerated.

If you wish Dr. Chapel and Commander Uhura to have more to do with  the
next film, both of them urged you to write to Paramount. Sometimes they
do listen to fans.

I bought a poster of the late updated Enterprise.   It listed it's  top
speed at warp 12 (for those of you who still don't know).

"Live Long and Prosper!"
