I'd be interested in testing the waters to see just how much of a "likeness"
my representation of William Shatner really is.
Of course, it's not William Shatner - it's Fred Flintstone! Or something
that sort of looks like him.
And Fred Flintstone can't bring suit against me... heh-heh-heh.

My parody is done - the STONE TREK theme animation are all the legacy I
intended to leave.
The cartoon episode now in production is just icing on the cake.
The news is already out.
Lots of people already know about STONE TREK... I've been hitting the
cyberpavement for months touting it, and Icebox.com has registered over 8000
hits on it since the middle of August. I'd say the sabre-toothed tiger's out
of the bag.
