Well, believe it or not, I went to see Star Trek again for a third 
time.  I have been commenting on how Ahab was so obsessed, but I am beginning
to suspect if I myself am obsessed.  I was persuaded by some friends to go and
see it yet a third time.  

	Each time I go to see the movie, I get something new each time.  I 
recognized minor details.  One of the details that struck me was in the
beginning of the movie there is a short scene where the Enterprise is in the 
forground and a colored cosmic cloud formation was in the background.  It
seemed to look like a cresting whale.  Odd, perhaps, but it is interesting to
catch such minor details.  It reminded me of the picture of the whale at the
spouter inn.
