I have been a trekkie since 1966 and have belonged (at various times) to the "Star Trek Welcommittee" and S*T*A*R* ("Star Trek Association for Revival"). I have all of the concordances published by Bjo Trimble: the two originals, offset, with silk-screened covers; as well as the pro publication of the revised version by Ballentine Books. If there was anything omitted from those books it was not from lack of dedication by Bjo; they essentially make up a "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know..." for Star Trek...*including* the animated series! (like I said, Bjo's thorough.) According to these books, there were never any un-telecast episodes, and no scripts left unused. The programme's creator, Gene Roddenberry,'s "The Making of Star Trek" also supports this contention. -- The Phoenix (Neither Bright, Dark, nor Young) ---"A man should live forever...or die trying." ---"There is no substitute for good manners...except fast reflexes."
