Can anybody tell me what the "official" answer to the following question is:

	Why when a landing party got stuck on a planet a shuttle-craft
wasn't sent down to pick them up ?

The reason for this was that the idea of a shuttlecraft was not brought
up until later in the series.  Most of the situations you speak of were
"probably" before this idea was begun..  If this is not the case then it
was probable because the authors thought it would be to boring to bring
down a shuttle and it would make the shows last about 15 min.
Someone please tell me how to make (at uiucuxc) appear under my signon.
I am new at the net so i really dont know how.
