, I've enjoyed seeing people quote their favorite(?) line at the bottom of their posting. How 'bout those (like me) who normally don't -- or even do. Send your own personal posting "trailer"... E.G. : "Tell 'em, Jim! Tell 'em, Jim!" || "Mr. Spock, we have a flop." || "I recognize the customary accoutrements." || "Logical. Flawlessly logical." Scott W. Collins ATT - Bare Rubber Trees Columbus, OH p.s. Pardon me if I slightly misquote... Also, if vulcan men (e.g. Sarek, Spock, Surak) have their names start with an 'S' and end in a 'k', what of Stonn (not Lazarus)?

I was always a fan of this exhange from "Doomsday Machine": Kirk: "Matt--there is no fourth planet!" Decker: "Don't you think I know that??" George Raiche Dept. of Chemistry Dartmouth honorable mention: Kirk (in Piece of the Action): "Who's interferin'? We're, aah, takin' over!"

While we're reminiscing (from `A Taste of Armageddon'): Ambassador Fox: (shocked) ``Mr. Spock, WHAT are you DOING??'' Spock: ``I am practicing an obscure form of diplomacy, Sir'' (Spock then raises his weapon, and fires...) KBHK Ch. 44 in SF has just started showing ST at 6:00pm on weekdays, Erik E.

In addition to today's signature line, here are a few more of
my favorites:
"Right Spocko?" "Check." [Piece of the Action]
"...and McCoy...?"
"Is the random element." [City on the Edge of Forever]
Something along the lines of
"I am constantly amazed,
Captain, at your constant
ability to inform me of things
of which I already know." [???????]
Also, what Sarek ("of Vulcan") said about
Tellurites in "Journey to Babel" struck me
as quite good.
Well, until my memory is further jogged (or at least trotted),
"Laddie--Doon't ya think ya shoold...rephrase that?"

>>>"Then GO...or STAY...but do it because it is what you WISH to do!"
I remember that scene. It always makes me nash my teeth and WISH
that wimpy Marla would zap him in the bedoobies and give him a voice
like Mickey Mouse.

I wonder if Gene Roddenberry has considered using Gary Seven
(Robert Lansing) and Miss Lincoln (Terri Garr) in a ST movie?
At the end of that episode, Spock referred to some future
adventures involving the two. Is Lansing still around?
Haven't seen him in ages . . .

A real pity, although I'm not sure what the series would have been about. It would get kind of weak if Gary kept having to save the Earth from being screwed up. Maybe if he got to go wherever he wanted in time with his silly secretary. Thoughts? -- "Loving you goes far beyond any distant star." Peter Merchant

Robert (Gary Seven) Lansing is still alive and kicking. He did a play in Toronto recently. He seems to have aged more gracefully than say DeForest Kelley but less gracefully than Bill Shatner. Terry Garr, of course, is a *bona fide* star these days and seems to have made most of her career out of playing Roberta Lincoln-type ditzes. RJS

My favorite line is in "Catspaw". After hearing some lines trying to scare them, Kirk and Spock remark on what they have heard: Kirk - Analysis, Spock. Spock - Very bad poetry, sir. Does anyone know this "very bad poetry"? Allan F. Perry

Garr's character seemed silly, I got the impression that she was quite intelligent. If "Hollywood" didn't portray her the way they usually show women, I think her character would have been quite an asset if the show became a series. I think the network could have made a stab at the series. Gary Seven would no doubt go around saving earth but he also didn't want to stay on earth longer than necessary. He made a reference when he transported down from the Enterprise, "Look at them, how can they live like that" or something to that effect. He could be shown trying to convince the race that prepared him to let him return. Remember, even the ST universe did not know of this race! "Live Long and Prosper!" Michael N.

Lansing is currently appearing in the new show "The Equalizer" on Wednesdays at 10:00. He plays the head of a CIA-type agency. The Spitzer

One of my favorite lines is from "The Ultimate Computer": "Computers make excellent and efficient servants, but I have no wish to serve under them." (Spock, stardate 4729.4) The book "Star Trek Speaks" (1979) written by Susan Sackett, Fred Goldstein, and Stan Goldstein is an excellent collection of memorable lines from the series. I highly recommend this book.

rem@bu-cs.UUCP (Robert E. Mee) (11/08/85)
My favorite line is from "Patterns of Force" at which time Kirk and Spock are imprisoned by the Nazi's. They remove the transponders from their wrists. Spock is on Kirk's back aiming the laser weapon made from the transponders at the cell door. Kirk says: "Spock, I don't care if you hit the broad side of a barn.". And Spock says: "Captain, Why should I aim for such a structure?"
