has anyone ever read first contact? not the NG movie, but the one where the vulcans crash landed on Earth before the warp experiment?

well anyway that's next week (or an adaption of it) ...

sorry no spoilers for the season premiere ... I did like it though!

Yea, I read that one a few years back. I really liked it, though I don't remember much about it.

Kelp farms, wierd...

that's right!!! I think they landed near japan or something like that.

Eh, it was in the Pacific Ocean somewhere. I'm not too sure where. One of the farmers was of Japanese descent, so that's maybe where the Japanese angle comes from.

I quite liked the book, which is called "Strangers from the Sky," BTW. There's a dichotomy between the aging Kirk et al (it's set just before ST2) and the young Kirk et al who get stranded on Earth.

There hasn't been much done with the characters from the second pilot who didn't make it out alive. I'd like to see more about Gary Mitchell, Lee Kelso, etc. (Dangit! I can't think of anything to call the psychiatrist except "Hot Lips," and that's the wrong series!)

So, yes, I liked the book, and I much preferred it to the movie (No Borg! Gets my vote!).
