Seleya scene in STIII. There is precedent for the gong player: there was a similar character in the "Amok Time" episode. I will admit that the virgins seemed a bit strange, although it provided me with something to look at during what I considered a pretty boring (but necessary to the plot) scene (how long can you watch expressions on peoples' faces?). -- Barry Margolin ARPA: barmar@MIT-Multics UUCP: ..!genrad!mit-eddie!barmar
