This small section will list tidbits of information & rumours dealing with Star Trek that I have gathered from surfing through my links or seen and read from magazines, mailing lists, and the like. I will try list the source of the information whenever possible. I will also have other general science fiction news links as well as other sci-fi show web sites. I have also included some newsgroups.
Although I try to verify any news by listing the source, please remember that almost everything is gathered from outside sources and may or may not be totally accurate.

Viacom, which owns Paramount, has starting contacting the author's of Star Trek fan web sites and
have "requested" that they promtly remove any Star Trek related image, icon, sound file and so on from
their web site. As of now Viacom is targeting the major sites, but they probably will go for everyone else
when they are done with them.
Some sites have begun to comply with Viacom's demand by removing all Star Trek related bars, buttons, images
and so on from their sites. Others have refused, and still others have decided to start a campaign to stop
Viacom.
I will continue to keep my Star Trek page as it is until I am otherwise "forced" to do so. My Image & Sound page
will probably be gone, but no matter what, I will not completely shut down this site.
As to why Viacom would want to do this to the loyal Star Trek fans, I don't really know....It could be greed
or maybe "they" only want their "Official Sites" to be the "only" Star Trek source of information on the Net.
This section will have some official links to web sites of other Sci-Fi shows as well
as some corresponding newsgroups. This section might also have some news or rumours concerning
other Sci-Fi shows. (But I will always try to have more on Star Trek of course.)
