But the airlines cartel has suppressed it. Just like oil companies suppressed the discovery of dilithium crystals. 😉

I love the original Star Trek.

I like all the Star Trek movies and series.

The original will always be my favorite.

I miss Spock.

I think about him often.

The next season of Strange New Worlds will be available next month.

It features "Hot Spock" as he was once called by another character.

As for myself, I do not notice such things about the characters.

It might be my favorite after The Next Generation. Anson Mount plays a great captain. Discovery was my least favorite. I couldn't even finish it.

Healthier than vodka, although the two go together nicely.
