Regarding the Corbomite bluff, it was done twice, once was against the 
Romulans.  In the deadly years, when the commodore had taken over the
helm, as Kirk and party were senile, he got the ship surrounded by
Romulans.  Just in the nick of time, Kirk reappeared on the Bridge,
and, using Code 2, the Code the Romulans had broken, told them about
the Corbomite capability.

The other time it was done against the kid who played along side Gentle 
Ben on the epic old show.  (Now seen in reruns on CBN.)

There are two kinds of people in the world, those who divide people into two
kinds, and those who don't.
