   You are embarrassing yourself.  Again, to support your claim can you =
provide a reference that identifies the intent.  There is no doubt that =
this story takes place in the Star Trek universe and while that is = likely
an issue what I saw was that they intentionally avoided any use = of Star
Trek or the existing characters in Star Trek.

  It is clearly aimed to be a derivative work.

     Maybe you can confirm but something I read earlier claimed that =
this used
  all new characters.  From your quote below they use a new star ship =
and I
