    RE: superslug

         In ordinary medical ways, once the eardrum is punctured hearing is
         lost unless the membrane is restored. Of course a small thing like
         this is no problem for thr great Dr. McCoy.

         In reference to Saavik, if you noticed she passed a comment on
          the training simulator which implies that she is like Spock,
           half human. In Star Trek III don't be suprised if J.T. Kirk
           has an affair with  Saavik. If one watches the movie very
           carefully you can see that Saavik is not a full breed Vulcan.
           Also Spock comes back as a wizard (Vulcan Style). The movie
           should be realased in late summer/early fall .

In regards to the comment about Savik.  I has been my impression, I 
forget how I got it, that Savvik was half-Vulcan and half-Romulan.
Don't ask me to explain it, but she does show signs of romulan blood
during the movie.  Compare her to the female Romulan Captian in
"The Enterprise Incident".  A Kirk-Savvik love affair.  What would
David think?

NO NO NO.  Saavik is a half-Vulcan, half-Romulan.  This point is made in
the novelization taken from the script.

How did they do it?  Male romulan gives drugs to female vulcan to make
her receptive, then commits rape.  Of course, normal Vulcans would NOT
be comfortable around Saavik, even though they claim to have no emotions,
since normal Vulcans merely SUPPRESS emotions.  Also, they have an
historically demonstrated distaste for "halfbreeds" and only Spock would
be likely to accept her.

Kirk (shatner, actually) is getting too old to fit the MBAssh*le view
of what "the public" will identify with, for a romantic figure.  Since
the MBAssh*les run the studios, while Kirk may be the romantic figure
in this one, expect the next one to have someone else.
