bull's company EEG. Richard is also an avid surfer. Some of the detailing on the "Mark 2" (movie version) Enterprise was based on Richard's image of the ship as a cosmic surfer, riding the warp in space like an ocean surfer rides a crest on the water. This image lead to some of the overall reshaping of the hull and particularly to the various "skegs" (surfer talk for fins) at the aft end. By the way, they actually got started on time. Shooting began last Monday at Paramount on Star Trek 3. My coworkers and I got the tour yesterday so we could see our work in use -- we generated many of the animated graphics used on the display screens of the Enterprise bridge and other sets. -Craig Reynolds
