Ohhh the work I would do for Bev Crusher.

I love how Don admonishes Peggy for using Latin in her pitch and then turns around to use Greek for the Kodak pitch in this season's finale. in this season's finale.

I assumed everyone knew about the SD 'Golden Man'

I agree with all of these basically, except "No Reply."

5th and 6 th grade me would have benefitted greatly from this article. I loved to delve into the differences of the book versus the movie with anyone eho would listen.
