Stratos is a rip-off of Cloud City in Empire Strikes Back... Just kidding.

"The Cloud Minders" is a decent TOS episode, one of the best of the third season, with good acting from Bill Shatner and Nimoy (for the third season anyway). Looking foward to the remastered version...

Wow, I totally forgot about this episode. Can't wait to see it with the new city in the clouds. Would have like to learn what eventually became of the cloud minders and troglites (sp?). No the worlds best trek episode but was a good parable on discrimination and bigotry (sort of).

"Life's tough. It's tougher if you're stupid." -- John Wayne
"In the counsels of Government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the Military Industrial Complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists, and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals so that security and liberty may prosper together." --Dright D. Eisenhower Farewell Address, 1961
"Frank O'Connor, the Irish writer, tells in one of his books how, as a boy, he and his friends would make their way across the countryside, and when they came to an orchard wall that seemed too high and too doubtful to try and too difficult to permit their voyage to continue, they took off their hats and tossed them over the wall--and then they had no choice but to follow them. This Nation has tossed its cap over the wall of space, and we have no choice but to follow it. Whatever the difficulties, they will be overcome. Whatever the hazards, they must be guarded against...."
" -- John F. Kennedy 21 November, 1963
