Subject: RE: Any 'Trekkies' also Folkie fans?
Teller - You've just created the best idea yet for the NEXT Star Trek spinoff! Morris in Deep Space (though most people will think it's the cat...)

Art - I do believe Meaney also sang Minstrel Boy somewhere. I wish I could remember the episode.. At the very end Picard is sitting at his desk with space in background and the credits begin shortly after he starts to sing. Here I am, an original trekkie and I remember the music more than anything else about the episode... I shall have to stop calling myself a trekkie/er - but then I have heard you really aren't considered one until you've been to a convention (and probably dressed up as well). I'll have to check out Earth Abides - the comments at Amazon were extremely interesting.

Jeri - [possible Wellworld spoiler alert!] I loved the first few volumes of Jack Chalker's Wellworld series. But the man falls in love with woman - then man becomes woman sort of freaked me out... I prefer Nathan Brazil to Nathan Brazier... Call me conservative... (and I'm not usually). BTW, the Star Trek album has a beautiful rendition of the Orchestral Suite from The Inner Light.
