...train arrived, Stiller and his family got off at the Zoological Garden station, the first main stop in West Berlin. From there, waiting West German agents rushed them to Tempelhof Airport.

Finding a safe landing field in the U.S. on the return run is not easy either, but more and more crude landing strips have appeared in rural areas in the South. One pair of hapless smugglers this month made it all the way into the U.S. only to land in a Florida pasture being used by local politicians for a turkey shoot. The pilot was promptly arrested.

Star Trek Creator Eugene Roddenberry, 57, is famous for introducing horrible monsters who are searching for a little understanding to make them un-horrible. While the film's script is under tight lock and key, it is safe to speculate, as does Actor Leonard Nimoy, the pointy-eared Mr. Spock, "that we eventually find our antagonist is searching as well." At first the Enterprise will be fighting what looks like a cloud of electrically charged whipped cream, but the monster is hiding its true nature...
