    Anyone else love the large, physical controls on the original Enterprise?

    LCARS is cool, and the Cardassian version on DS9 definitely stands out. But the blinking lights and status indicators on the old 1701 (no bloody A, B, C, or D…) has a special place.

    I love the joke, and I also love her.

    She is the sweetest person I’ve met at a convention. I was pretty starstruck meeting her, so of course my brain just turned off, and she was so kind and told me a couple of stories. When my brain finally rebooted, I asked her to sign the picture for my wife, and she came around the table to give me a hug telling me how sweet that was. She could have just signed a picture and sent me on my way. But her taking that extra 30 seconds or so gave me an experience I’ll never forget.
