The studios, in an effort to sell more movies to the networks closer to the original release date, have been adding scenes left on the cutting room floor back in. There were also several scenes involving peter preston (Scotty's nephew) added back in. The one exception to the add it back in syndrome of late was Star Wars last spring. The only reason that it didn't happen there is that George Lucas retained enough control over sales, etc. to prevent it. -- Mike Stalnaker {decvax!grendel,cbosgd!seismo}!dolqci!mike Be wary of strong drink: It can cause you to shoot at the tax collector... and miss.
