 CT> *** Quoting Jackie Burns from a message to Jim Buntjer ***
 
 JB> just how good this storyline actually ends up being...  Have to
 JB> wonder if the woman who plays Seven-of-Nine might be slightly
 JB> anorexic.  You can see her bones through that silver suit she wears
 JB> now...  
 
 JB> You are the first person that I have seen mention that you can see
 JB> bones. Everyone else I have talked with see other parts of her.  I
 CT> I don't think those are ribs you're seeing in her jumpsuit but 
 CT> ribbing or something similar to a girdle to cinch everything in.
 CT> There was mention somewhere that Jeri Ryan would practically faint
 CT> from the tightness of her costume.
 CT> However, I do have to admit that her exterior upper thoracic 
 CT> protruberances are inordinately large. :)
     Those last two lines before yours were said by Jim Buntjer, not me.
 
 JB> think they need to move away from the sexual appeal aspect that they
 JB> are doing with her.  Write interesting stories and I think they will
 JB> get more people over a longer period of time watching the episode. 
 JB> Bimborg or Barbie of Borg just doesn't interest me.
 CT> Well, Seven got a new crimson knit jumpsuit in "The Raven" and I think
 CT> she has attracted more male viewers this season.  I think her 
 CT> character is being developed very nicely in this episode and the
 CT> storylines will move away from overt sexiness, though tension should
 CT> remain.
 
     Again, those lines are Jim Buntjer...
 JB>        Maybe I just took more notice of it because I am aware 
 JB> of  how overly thin my own body is and I find that the sight of my 
 JB> own  bones is offensive to me, so seeing them on someone else who 
 JB> should be  taking care of themselves is just as grotesque.  At least 
 CT> Well, you could bulk up with more protein but isn't thin in?
     Finally!  Something I actually said...  I have tried all manner
 of ways to "bulk up" and none of them have worked.  And I really
 couldn't give two hoots what's in because I don't do vogue and never
 have and never will...  But this is a topic more suited for a
 different echo, not this one, love...
     But perhaps you should resend this message to the one whom I
 believe it was geared towards in the first place, and that would be
 Jim Buntjer, because you were quoting mostly what he said...
 CT> Anyway, it looks like the next two episodes are going to be reruns
 CT> now. cya!
     Oh well, I haven't had an opportunity lately to see any of them
 because of other things more important, so I guess this is a moot point
 with me...
     Eternally,
               Alpha...
