Chris Wayne @ UNM /* ---------- */ They wanted an ABSOLUTELY DEAD test planet so there'd be no complications. I'm sure that Genesis would work on live planets, (so Spock said), but they wanted a nice sterile one for the first test. -Jack Applin {hplabs,csu-cs,hp-pcd,nwuxd}!hp-dcd!jack

Ah ha! I've found them. Shortly after STII came out I wrote down my first impressions, later they disappeared. I'm sending them over the net for discussion and/or answering. Some of them I have forgotten the reason for writting them down in the first place, but there might be something of interest in this group. - When Chekov and Terrell land on Ceti Alpha V, is that part of the "Guardian" from the old set(CEF) that is seen on the right? - After walking a distance to the remains of the Botany Bay, the "Guardian" can still be seen on the right in the distance. - Chekov not on Space Seed. - Kirk's shuttle docks at port torpedo bay. The movie shows docking at the bay below port torpedo. - All that seems to be left of the Botany Bay is the cargo containers. - The one they enter is on its side ("seat belts" on wall), but "max load" sign is right side up. - Kirk lives in San Francisco. - Romulan ale of 2283(????) - When is Kirk's birthday? - Reliant looks like a tug, but is a light cruiser. - Marking on wall on the left on the outside of the elevator is a "4" inside a box above a "5" inside a box. What does that mean? - Some of Khan's people look younger than those in (SS), but older than 15yrs. - Is there trouble in finding a dead test planet in the first place, then why bother? - McCoy's expression about genisis - Spock says "your emotions will be your undoing". - Old style fire extinguisher on wall in back off bridge. - When Khan came-on-screen for first time, there was no scream from Uhura or the yeoman. - Enterprise fired FORWARD at reliant as reliant flies over port quarter stern. - Scotty brings Peter to the bridge after the battle. - Uhura does not gasp when peter is brought up. - Was there really a ship named the Kobayashi Maru? - Talking while beaming aboard. - Motari Nebula looks a little like V'ger. - Spock tells McCoy (mind meld) "remember". Remember what? - Mark IV Torp Casing/Coffin has four prop/thrust units. Chris Wayne @ UNM
