MM>In answer to your other question, yes, there are certainly TOS fans
MM>here.  I, for one, watched the American premier of Star Trek in 1966.
MM>The TOS vision of racial harmony and a bright future made an enormous
MM>impact on viewers during those years of race riots and the Vietnam war.
MM>TNG, DSN and VOY may be more sophisticated in many ways, but they will

    To put in my $0.02 on this subject:
    The series of series we have now are like the continuation of an
  enjoyable conversation etc , but, as you say, TOS had an impact none
  of the others can have simply because it was the first clear
  refreshing draught in a sea of muddied waters.
