[net.startrek] Cold-Storing Spock's Soul

martillo@ihuxt.UUCP (Yehoyaqim Martillo) (06/05/84)

Spock's soul was put into storage in nurse Chapel's body during the Sargon
episode.  Thus even the TV series hinted at the Vulcan ability to store
the soul in someone else's body.

There was, to my knowledge, nothing in the "Sargon" episode
to indicate that the ability of Spock's intellect to reside in
Nurse Chapel was in any way a result of his being Vulcan.
Recall Kirk and Ann Mulhahl were stored in "globes" at
the time.  As I see it, they could easily have been placed 
in another's body.

That wasn't a Vulcan ability, it was done using Sargon's science.
