Message-ID: <6236b77a.0210231148.4d661274@posting.google.com> -------- why are EU references allowed, but ST TM references not, when neither is strictly speaking, canon? Are the Star Wars TMs considered EU? What does a hydrospanner do? How much is gold-pressed latinum worth? What would be more economical to send in the mail, wookies or tribbles? What is a "turbolaser", as opposed to a regular "laser" or "quadlaser"? Who named Count Dooku? Who wrote the script for Episode 1? Who decided to name Episode 2 "attack of the clones"? Who made the character of Westley Crusher? Who make the Romulans in TNG into backstabbers? that is all. If there are any other secrets of the universe not listed, please add them on. If you feel like answering them seriously, please do that. If you feel like trolling, do that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "DarkStar" Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2002 01:16:46 -0500 Subject: Re: why are EU references allowed, but TM not, when neither is canon?

This policy does NOT apply to ASVS at this time and likely never will as it is based on his interpretation of some quotes overiding explicit statements in other quotes. -- Lcpl Burnett, G.R.
