And on the flip side Ron hated Worlds of the Federation so he went out of his way to do everything opposite of what was posted in Worlds.<P>What other books have we seen influence on cannon Trek? <P>The Spaceflight Chronology published in 1979 was worked on by Rick Sternbach. It was the first place that mentions that the uprated Enterprise seen in TMP was still a Constitution class, going against all other enteries which had it listed as Enterprise Class (something I would have agreed with). Until Star Trek 6 with Scotty looking at Constitution Class prints there was still a debate over this. I wonder if Rick had those prints created with Constitution class because of his work in The Spaceflight Chronology.<P>The USS Revere and the USS Columbia mentioned in TMP were both listed (with registry) in Franz Joseph Manual. The rumored USS Entente is also listed in the Manual. The graphics seen in TWOK and TSFS also came from this Manual. They include the showing of the Scout/Destroyer and Tug.<P>I have noticed several works from FASA and Worlds of the Federation that have shown up in different Okudagrams.<P>What other works have we noticed? Do we know of any others were writers went to lenghts to disprove something.<P>------------------<BR>-=/\=-<BR>Captain Stark<BR>http://beam.to/readyroom<P>"The man on the top walks a lonely path.
