Having confronted Dr. Jay, Joseph Luna, International Man Of Mystery, 
exclaimed:
 
 JL> That makes me wonder though, since I've never seen it.  Has any
 JL> sci-fi story out there ever made references to Star Trek big or small?
 JL> Preferably maybe ones set in or near the same time period. :) 
     In the Philip K. Dick short story "The Electric Ant" (1969), he 
uses the term `captain kirk' as slang for television set.  Could well be 
the first Star Trek reference in sci-fi history.
