Star Trek Message Forum

Dear group:

It's a pleasure to meet fellow science fiction enthusiasts. I am normally involved with giantess stories, but I like an occasional Robert Heinlein novel or Star Trek episode.

Back in 1995, I met the actor who played Commander Riker and the actor who played Geordi LeForge, LeVar Burton. I was friends with the niece of Hulk Hogan, and after meeting him, I told him I would like to meet with Frakes to discuss story ideas for their next movie. Hogan hooked me up with Jonathan Frakes.

Rumour had it they were doing a movie about the Borg, and my idea was to get them to do a Borg story involving Zefram Cochrane. Frakes was nice and polite to me, and informed me that if they used my ideas I would not be payed. I gave my consent, eager to see my ideas up on the silver screen. Less than a year later, Star Trek: First Contact came out in theaters!

I just thought I would share my experience of adding a brick in the wall of the Star Trek mythology.
