Okay. A lot of stuff has been floating around about Quark
(Which I happen to feel was an excellent spoof), so I might as well
throw in my 2 cubits worth. I don't know how much of this has already
been revealed, but here goes:
QUARK

The voyages of an interplanetary garbage scow, sent out by the U.G.S.P.
(United Galaxy Sanitation Patrol), commissioned to clean up the Milky Way.

Now all I need is an episode guide.
Maybe for Star Trek IV, Kirk can take control of Quark's ship, and have
Ficus pollinate on/with Spock. Hmmm, subplots, subplots. Scotty
and Gene/Jean in a lover's triangle...Nah!
Oh, well.
