How many of us children of the seventies remember being glued to the TV watching Kirk and Spock and the whole crew of the Enterprise voyage through the galaxy? When I was ten or eleven I recall Sunday nights, I think, watching the show at my grandparent’s house, week after week. Like Bugs Bunny cartoons, I saw them all. I even read the paperback novelizations. Played with the Trek dolls with my friends. One day I’ll buy the DVD box set, once I have some disposable income. Until then, I have only memories to go on for this post – memories that are, paradoxically, fuzzy and seared into my cerebral cortex. Funny how that is, isn’t it?
