The one where the transporter was spitting everything into violent and
nonviolent parts was one of the most screwed up shows.  I believe I
saw some discussion of its inadequacies in net.sf-lovers before the
existance of net.startrek.  Even if the shuttlecraft did not exist
they could have beamed down blankets to the planet.  To quote a
long gone article "Even if the blankets came down tied in knots they
still would serve for their primary function, providing insulation."
But if we are talking about screwed up shows who can forget Spock's
Brain!  The wierd and wonderful screwups in that show are too numerous
to mention in this article.  The best involved Mcoy's (spelling?)
operation of the brainless Spock body.
