     George Takai is in town for a ST Convention in Baltimore this  weekend
(Cockeysville,  to  be  exact).   In  a  brief  telephone  interview  on  a
Washington, DC radio station he said that the  next  film  (STIV)  will  be
"much  lighter in tone -- more fun" than the last two.  He gave examples of
"fun" episodes:  The Trouble With Tribbles, Shore Leave...

     The announcer commented on how his wife was so upset  after  the  last
film  (first  the Beatles break up... now they burn the Enterprise!).  Sulu
said something to the effect that after STII people thought Spock was  gone
forever and that you can do lots of things in sci fi.
