...glad that the Weekly World News has lost so much of its readership--from 1.2 million in the 1980s to 83,000 now. In fact, I feel incredibly old to have been alive at a time when people read a newspaper with a Bigfoot beat and watched Leonard Nimoy use science to go in search of the Loch Ness monster and Atlantis.

...Paramount announced the 11th Trek movie, to be directed by Mission: Impossible III tyro J.J. Abrams. And--you may want to sit down for this--Spock and Kirk are back. The film will center on the Starfleet Academy days of the duo, originally played by William Shatner and LEONARD NIMOY. The starship looked set for scrap after the 10th film and sixth TV series were busts. But don't line up for tickets yet. It's not due until...
