David,

I do know Michael R. A good guy. He was on first Season of Enterprise while I was taking a long and very enjoyable break from working. We were either in the same DGA Training class or one very close together, because we kept crossing paths many times over the years. Small world.

Did you work with him?

Never had much use for Rumulans. The Vulcans gone bad where never convincing to me. Now Vulcans and Klingons I can understand, because I'm both at different times.

I believe that we are beings with spiritual power and a universal spiritual connection with the ultimate person I understand to be God, and the rest of humanity. If you have an interest in knowing more, I have recommended both the book "How God Changes Your Brain," about neurological studies on how the brain deals with faith and religion – written by an atheist and an agnostic, and the documentary,” The Quantum Advocate. The documentary focuses on the ideas of Quantum scientist Amit Goswani.

Goswanit says science has proved there is a conscience connection between human beings beyond what is physically possible. He postulates that what if a ultimate conscientiousness exists that provides conscientiousness to humans. And through whom we are all connected.

The authors of the book report that neurological science has determined that all brains are “hotwired for religion. The are using different kinds of religions meditation to deal with mental and physical health problems. The provide samples in the book and claim that even folks who don't believe in God, have shown improvement using these methods. They say that religion which advances a loving and forgiving God, improves compassion in human beings, improves their health, and also gives hope. All very good things. Unfortunately, toxic religion, the kind practices by Islamic terrorists, KKKers and such, has the opposite effect.

Hi David F

Sorry about the "I'" At the top of the page, there's supposed to be a "Studio Mail" to click on.

When my name appears as "I", the "Studio Mail" is there

If I use "Andy" or "Andrew" it disappears behind the "Upload Your Work" and I can't get to my mailbox.

If you look at a baby, all of his attention is devoted to identifying faces and faical expressions. Having a sense of what his parents are trying to communicate to him... is rewarded, and takes place without language or much conscious thought. If we have a connection to other people, that's where it comes from.

It's interesting to study the faces of actors, particulary on sitcoms... the regular viewers are determined almost totally by what their faces look like.

On Star Trek, the Klingon and Romulan makeup, and various alien races... totally cut off the audience wanting to watch the show. Jeri Ryan was the only actor who fit the mold... that, and Patrick Stewart's voice.
