[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] [i]*hugs Guardian 2000* *notices Psyliam and Sol System exchanging odd looks* *quickly backs off*[/i] As for quotes, according to [URL=http://www.mrpoesmorgue.com/usvsd/sources.html#Update%201-29-05]this site[/URL], Berman said the following in [i]Communicator[/i] #154: [QUOTE][In response to the question of "[i]Who monitors the Star Trek canon and makes sure that you don't step on already established facts in previous Star Treks?[/i]"] "[i]That is something we have done for 18 years. It is done by different people. We had Richard Arnold dealing with those situations for years, and lately we have Manny Coto who is very aware of the history of Star Trek. We have people like Mike Okuda and Dave Rossi who keep an eye on those things, too. So, obviously, we have to do our best to be true to the canon. The canon is a very odd thing. What we tend to do is stay true to the movies and the television series. A lot of the other information comes from novels and role-playing games and video games and fan speculation, and we would all go nuts if we tried to coordinate all that. Obviously, there are things that have always been contradictory, but we do our best.[/i]"[/QUOTE]...which really isn't particularly revealing. [i]Star Trek: The Magazine[/i] did an entire article on "Canon Books" in their March 2002 edition, (Volume 2, Issue 11) that prompted a letter from a fan which was briefly addressed by the editors in the May 2002 (Vol. 3, Issue 01) edition. Unfortunately, I do not have a copy of the former, but I do the latter, so I [URL=http://flareupload.pleh.net/uploads/646/mag_canon.jpg]scanned[/URL] the relevent query and response. It may still be possible to order back issues of the mag [URL=https://www.gefabbri.co.uk/startrek/index.asp?source=backcovers.asp]here[/URL], if you have any desire. The article, as I recall, covered the subject fairly extensively and probably had some quotes, though I can't remember any specific ones. I have no direct quotes from Ordover, but I remember reading posts of his in the Trek Literature forum on the TrekBBS regarding this topic. -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
