In response to a previous article.... ST2 - I believe the jist of the conversation between Kirk and Peter Preston in sickbay is as follows: Peter:"Captain...is the word given?" Kirk:"The word is given - warp speed" Peter:"Aye Sir." Then Peter dies. I always thought this was the delirium of Peter's injuries talking; that he still thought he was in a combat position, and wanted Kirk's next orders; loyal to the end. Does anyone out there subscribe to a Star Trek Newsletter called "INTERSTAT"? I would like to get more information about it.
