 PA>>    Who came from Mars. And never ate. And was going to be 
 PA>> immune to energy weapons, although they dropped that idea 
 PA>> because of what it would do to the dramatic tension.
 ZF>> This has been disputed, but not disproven.
 PA>    What's it doing in an official Trek history, then?
It's not official, given the source that you cite below.  It is 'accepted', 
but is not verified.
 PA>>  ...and, of course, _Star Trek_ showed the first kiss on 
 PA>> American TV between a white man and a black woman.
 ZF>> Nope.  Sorry.  The first interracial kiss actually occurred 
 ZF>> in 1954 , on an American sit-com carried live on network 
 ZF>> television, and was seen by nearly 12 million people across the 
S.
 PA>    Again, not what the Trek history books say.
In this case, the "Trek history books" are substantially _wrong_.
 LM>>> Majel Barret (Mrs Roddenberry), Nurse Chapel on The 
 LM>>> Original Series also plays Lwaxana Troi (Deanna's mother) 
 LM>>> on The Next  Generation.
 PA>>    In addition, she has voiced assorted ship's computers, 
 PA>> Gary Seven's portable computer, and Cochrane's Companion.
 ZF>> And what was her stage name as these voices?
 PA>    I know of no stage names. I just repeat what I read in the 
 PA> Okudapaedia.
And hence the credibility of your knowledge fails.  If you can do no more 
than parrot what is written by others, you haven't really learned anything.
Majel Barrett Roddenberry went under the names of Emily Hudec and M. Leigh 
Hudek/Hudec, as well as several others, prior to being known as Majel 
Barrett, her most famous stage name.
