After all, no one is perfect, not even Spock. I'm a little embarassed to say that I don't remember the details of my favorite error, except that it involves Kirk or Spock exclaiming that something is "greater than one to the fourth power" (or something like that). Other episodes contain dialogue or actions that are just not in character for our heroes (notwithstanding the influence of sinister forces). Why not post your favorite star trek errors, anachronisms or pet peeves? You may find that not everyone agrees with you! Rich Greenberg Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory
