TrekUnited Reports Mission Successful at Trek Rallies

Lord Prox writes "TrekUnited.com has the scoop on the LA/Paramount, Tel Aviv, and New York rallies. Surprises include a group of donors pledging a resounding $3mil and the appearances of cast and crew members. Reuters and Wired have details on the rallies and I took a few snapshots as well."

    The campaign to save the show is headed by Trekkie Tim Brazeal. Brazeal, 42, is galvanizing thousands of fans worldwide to collect $32 million to pay for the cost of a fifth season of Star Trek: Enterprise.

    The contributed money is transferred to a secure account set up at ORNL Federal Credit Union which only multiple trustees can access.

    Looks like they have things covered, no? After all, $32 million is not $32,000

  2. You mean to tell me... by Jeremiah+Cornelius · · Score: 1, Troll
    That people living under the incredible political circumstances of Israel, and facing the creeping Fascist takeover of the United States find nothing more worthy of their resonsibility for Civil Disobedience than the demise of a fscking T.V. Show?

    That whirring sound is the twin-dynamo of MLK and Ghandi, spinning in their graves.

    It defies satire! Guy Debord could not have had nightmares this bad! It is a demeaning insult to the people who have had to resort to protest actions for redress of real injury and oppression.

    Then, tomorrow was another day
    The morning found me miles away
    With still a millions things to say,
    Now, as twilight beams the sky above
    Recalling thrills of our love
    There's one thing I'm certain of,
    Return, I will,
    To old Brazil.
