This interview says that RS did the historical Enterprise pictures for TMP, so he'd be the guy to ask. All in all, an interesting interview.

I'm not at all sure "Star Trek: Keeping the kids away from gangster rap since 1987!" is a workable or appealing slogan...

Actually I'd say that the tagline was modified from the original, "Star Trek: a distraction from society's poo since 1967"

Well, my point, healthily sprinkled with what we like to call The Funny, is that that dichotomy is weird and comes out of left field, and thus amused me enough to point it out.
To explain myself (and thus kill the joke, I suppose, such as it is): I have a hard time imagining the social circle where kids are faced with the gritty choice between listening to Tupac and arguing over the proper crew compliment of the Ambassador class. The rough and tumble ghettos around Urbana, maybe. Or Cambridge MA. And then consider that kids trading MP3s are just as much proto-technofetishists as the kids trading internal elevation sketches.
I'm not sure why I'm going on about this, it was just a minor bit of humor in an otherwise interesting interview.
I wonder if it's ok to trade cyberpunk rap songs?

I'm Sushi K and I'm here to say I like to rap in a different way
Look out Number One in Every City Sushi K rap has all most pretty
My special talking of remarkable words Is not the stereotyped bucktoothed nerd
My hair is big as a galaxy Cause I attain greater technology
I like to rap about sweetened romance my fond ambition is of your pants
So here is of special remarkable way of this fellow raps named Sushi K
The Nipponese talking phenomenon Like samurai sword his sharpened tongue
Who raps the East Asia and the Pacific Prosperity Sphere, to be specific
(bet you thought it didn't exist, eh?)

Who, me? I was listening to Deltron 3030 (I found a copy!) as I was writing.
Posted by Thoughtchopper (Member # 480) on :
Deltron 3030? I must activate Kazaa, and discover what this is.
Posted by Thoughtchopper (Member # 480) on :
I have discovered what it is, and I like it. A Lot. I'm rappin' along, for gott's sake.
Thanks for throwing something like that out into the world, and improving my life a tiny bit, dude.
As long as my mirrorshades don't fail me, I think I'm good for now.

I had no idea Sternbach was so old.

That's the Moore-syndrom. A shame he's gone, but at least he can tell us now what he really thinks of Berman and his gang.
