Nelson,Nicely done. Lee, Is the 'depending on how one counts' related to production vs. airdate ordering, or something else?

I don't know this answer off hand. But I did think of That Which Survives as it's a third-season episode and the phaser fires successfully. But you're speaking of a hand phaser and not a pistol, so I may have to cogitate the possibilities for a time as I don't recall which type was fired in...

Lee,And don't yas be finding your next trivia question from out of your new book. 'Cause I don't wanna be hearing any more cracks about the book. Right? Check. ;)

You're welcome, Nelson.

Tino,It's nice to see you in this thread. I know you're a Trek fan from reading many of your posts in other threads. Feel free to ask a trivia question sometime! :)

Nelson,Thank you! "I felt like music." ;)

Nelson,I would love to see pictures from the event you attended. :)

Nelson,Thank you for your impressions of the event you attended. I appreciated reading your thoughts on it very much. And I would have loved to have been there as well. But I have to ask, was Nichelle really given some 'honorary plagues' or was it something else? ;)

Nelson,I think you would have had better luck had you checked the Australian newspapers. But I'm sure you already knew that. ;)

Nelson,You recorded the audio at a drive-in theater? Now that, sir, is committment on your part! Rather than being reduced two steps in rank for your past transgressions (whatever those may be), I hearby promote you to Fleet Admiral. :)

Just an FYI -- Bye Bye Robot is unvailing five new franchise-spanning Star Trek prints. :) http://www.startrek.com/article/bye-bye-robot-unveils-5-new-franchise-spanning-trek-prints

For me, yes.

Nelson,You're welcome. And it does. Of course, of the 100+ photos, I suppose it's possible that we've not seen only about two or three. But we can hope. ;)

I would be interested in perusing the never-before-seen photos. :) http://www.startrek.com/article/star-trek-collectors-issue-available-now

Nelson, I think I need a bit of clarification as well. I'm thinking you're talking about some of the things Sandoval says near the first quarter or so of the episode.

Captain's Log, stardate 1709.2. What you do not know and must be told is that my command orders are precise and inviolable. No provocation will be considered sufficient reason to violate the zone. We may defend ourselves, but, if necessary to avoid interspace war, both these outposts and this...

Nelson,Those truly are gorgeous! Why didn't TPTB contact you before they considered doing the remastered episodes? ;)

Nelson,You really should have been there years ago when I 'played' TOS with my family. The scenes from various episodes that we acted out were priceless. We had phasers, tricorders, and even some Gorn rocks (er, a football or two). ;)

Just in time for the holidays! :) http://startrek.com/article/star-trek-holiday-gift-guide-2014-edition

Nelson, And had you wanted to dispute my claim, that would not have been very wise. No, not very wise at all.

Nelson, Not in any way to dispute your computer, but to my mind the Thetan was horrifying enough so as not to need a weapon! I am actually quite pleased that I didn't see The Architects of Fear when I was under ten years old. As I'm sure you are aware from reading Schow, that episode featured...

Lee,Yes, I just meant that all quarters were really a redress (I was stating this to rule out the possibility of a trick question on your part). Perhaps I could have chosen a better word than simple. In any event, I will concede this round to Nelson (to break the tie). After all, he has the...

Lee, A great question. I am assuming you're not speaking of one of the quarters being a simple redress of another (in other words, a trick question). The first one that comes to mind for me is The Tholian Web. Were both quarters shown in The Menagerie?

Nelson,Yes, a real phaser that could stun, kill, and vaporize is what I meant. Please get to work on that for me. ;) Actually, I read not too long ago where the Australians are again at work on the teleporter (transporter). I first read of these advances about a half dozen or so years ago...

Nelson,I think a working TOS phaser would be the one piece of equipment that I would really want to own if I could choose just one item. The tricorder would be fun to have too, but that TOS phaser shown above (or one from the pilots or What Are Little Girls Made Of?) would be a dream to own.

Nelson, "Would you like to take a crack at it?" Or if you prefer, "Hop to it, Mister." ;)

Lou,I saw that image some time ago! I may have posted it in another context. It's very nice! :)Lee, I wonder if Orion was mentioned nearly as frequently. Probably not, unless we take into account some of the other series. I know Orion was mentioned on TAS. Was Rigel as well? I'm not...

I watched Wolf In the Fold and Obsession tonight. Be very happy that it was not my turn to ask a trivia question -- you'd have never survived it. ;) Nelson,I thought of you immediately when I saw this. :) Star Trek ships are a big deal. They’re probably one of the coolest collector’s items for...

Carabimero,The person asking the trivia question usually keeps track of them for you. And they will also let you know who is ahead during a question, and who eventually wins the round. For first-timers such as yourself, you get $100 (real money) mailed to you (for your first point) within a...

Nelson, The name of Rigel is on a star chart in the episode.
