Not a trekkie, by any means, but...
Anyone remember the Star trek next generation episode where they go to a planet that's just flirting with space travel to the planet's nearest moon, are contacted by the enterprise, and the planet's government says our people aren't ready for the discovery of alien races, we'll focus on fixing problems here on the planet, come back in fifty years, or something like that?
That episode had frasier's girlfriend from Cheers in it.
Anyway, it made me ponder whether Kennedy could have done something like this, and now maybe the government was testing the story through a "leak" in a star trek episode. Kind of a similar idea, but I didn't think all that hard about it. Nice theory about Crichton, though. Just wondering if you thought of it late at night after a few beers. Sounds like something I might think about in that situation.
