[net.movies] ST2: Tiny spoiler question

edler (06/29/82)

Did anyone notice the book Spock gave to Kirk?
I think Kirk read the following quote:
"It was the best of times; it was the worst of times..."
Isn't that Ragtime?
What is this supposed to mean?

I guess that Jan Edler's question is supposed to be a joke, right?

The book is 'A Tale of Two Cities'. it is significant because the main
hero in the book goes to the gilloutine at the end, in place of his friend.

(oops, sorry. SPOILER!)
