While out Christmas Shopping (ugh), I was at Barnes and Nobles, and I happened upon a book called "The Trekkers Guide To The Internet", and upon flipping through it, I found it was just a list of Star Trek Websites. But, then I happened upon a page that looked familiar. It was a picture of....THE TNO FORUMS. It was a picture of the front page, with the names of the moderators clearly visible (The Vorlon, Elim Garek, and Frank G were the ones that stuck out!). So, I flipped to the glossary to see what else was there. Pedro's Shiporama, with a review in the back! The Great Link! (listed under humor and news)Star Trek Starships Expanded! The ORIGINAL Utopia Planitia! The copyright on this book is 1999, so it's pretty recent, but I guess this guy didn't check up on his links (since there is no mention of Utopia II or III). And, no, unfortunatly, Solarflare is not listed. Did you guys knows your sites were going to be in this book?

Bah! These sorts of books are ripoffs anyway.
