kracus, a question

I know that Kirk's Quarters in the Refit, are on D-deck, Spock's Quarters are on C-deck (ST-III), and in ST-II, it's implied that Saviik and McCoy's quarters might also be on C-deck (in ST-II, after Kirk and Saviic get on, on D-deck, they go up and then Saviic gets off and and McCoy gets on, then they go to the Bridge). I'm thinking that Admiral Kirk's D-deck quarters are a VIP suite, since Decker is Captain in TMP, then Spock is captain in ST-II/III. Does V or VI tell us where his quarters are? I'm wondering if Kirk's quarters in VI are different from his quarters in TMP, because he's not in the VIP suite any more.

Anybody have a clue? There aren't any clues as to where the bunks seen in ST-VI are, either.. is there? I need to re-watch VI, since there was so much signage all over the place, it's easy to miss one.

D-deck VIP quarters for Kirk would make sense, in terms of a) Kirk being a VIP and b) D-deck being appreciably close to supposed VIP facilities (the aft-facing lounge).

However, C-deck for Spock makes a bit less sense, since the quarters we see in the graphic that Chekov points at are on the outer rim of the saucer (more specifically, they are where FJ put the brig complex). I tend to think that Chekov's funny accent is to blame here: Spock may actually resided on deck E or deck G in the movie. (In fact, deck F would be the correct location as per the graphics, but it's less likely that Chekov could mangle the pronunciation of that letter into "C".)

OTOH, having the captain berthed close to the bridge would probably be prudent. Even if his or her official quarters are on deck 5 or something, Spock would no doubt have appropriated a deck 3 broom closet and converted it into his quarters, as this was the logical thing to do...

As for McCoy, his door plate does suggest deck 3 quarters in TOS. So all in all, having all the top officers (Kirk, McCoy, Spock in TOS; Decker/Spock, McCoy and the ghosts of the first officers past, present and future in TFS) berthed on C deck would be a satisfactory solution, even if it means that there's no room for anything else on that deck.

I forget: what is the reason that people generally claim Kirk was berthed on deck 5 in TOS? Was there something specific in "Journey to Babel"? Or do people just go by the fact that Kirk strolled through that deck while on his way to his quarters?

We need a head shaking wtf smilie

I like the smell and taste of coffee but I don't drink it mainly because I don't need any kind of pick-me-up or whatever in the morning. I'm pretty much awake as soon as I get up. If I do drink anything in the morning, it's usually water.

Schlokey: do you think that those energy drinks like Red Bull or Sobe Adrenaline are on the same level as coffee or no

Coffee is like fine wine, without the grogginess. It brings great delight to my tastebuds :icon14:

Having a nice variety of coffee also helps my coffee collection has grown a little since this photo
