[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] Gene roddenberry is NOT by any stretch of the imagination the final word on what is canon and what is not. He was the one who provided all that crap in the Making of Star Trek, which was what caused a lot of the errors in Franz Joseph's book. However, pretty much All of Fj's material has been contradicted heavily, many times over on screen. The only things left from that book which are canon are the Hermes, Saladin, and Ptolemy classes, and of course the Constitution. But nearly every single one of his registry numbers is incorrect, and so on and so forth... That's why FJ's Technical manual is non-canon. Not because GR said so. I don't give a flip about whether he declared TAS non-canon or not. GR is dead, and it's up to the present-day powers that be what is canon and what is not. The Encyclopedias and Technical Manuals, and to some extent the Chronologies are designed as guides for script writers. Paramount considers that it needs to be consistent within these publications, and that's what canon is: It's what paramount considers itself as having to be consistent within. Sternbach and Okuda's work ARE included in this. [/QB][/QUOTE]
