Never happen. Not everyone has the patience to read those tomes, and making
a movie of it would probably involve one incident of the story.
But at least the AI liked it.

That one had some good thinking about the impact of time-dilation. On 5/6/2010 12:05 PM, Andrew Burton wrote:
Bring back Captain Pike, I loved the pilot film of classic Star Trek.
The idea of space travel taking weeks or months , relative time to the
Space Craft, I think would have made for better stories would have more
time to develop a plot and character viewpoints.
Ben.
PS. AND NO TIME TRAVEL !!! I have seen every Star Trek film and TV show. I
could never get into
DSN and
the last ST TV series (can't recall it's name). Voyager is one of my
favourites.
If you can't remember the name of the "Enterprise" series,
have you
really seen every Star Trek TV show?
They were indeed terrible. When the best episode of the entire series is
a ST:TNG throwback, using ST:TNG actors, and it's the LAST episode of
the entire series, you know you've really screwed up.
