[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] Oh, please don't go by the official Chronology without qurestioning the datapoints. *heh* He was "about 34" in the TOS Bible, and his birthday in 2285, fifteen years later, was his 50th (granted, script only, but that drove Shatner's performance and Myers' direction). Simple math, if this [i]is[/i] 2245. I wonder anew if this was some huge rebuilding of the [i]Enterprise[/i]. New bridge, new engines, bigger crew complement... Maybe we're seeing the prevous big refit just before Kirk took command. That would jibe with Morrow's "twenty years old" line in Star Trek III. :) The only real problem still lies in the Chronology's placement of TOS and TMP. If Kirk was indeed born in 2233 nd "about 34" in early TOS, than TOS had to start around 2267 at the earliest. Counting back the other way, from his 50th in 2285, means he was "about 34" in 2269. And so on, and so on. Would have been better if the Okudas had hired a real researcher familiar with the Star Trek Expanded Universe to shore up dating referents. :p --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
