In other words, VELCRO is not space-alien technology from the alleged
crashed Roswell flying saucer, and its invention had nothing to do with
NASA though NASA is a big user of the various VELCRO products -- there
are even VELCRO hook straps inside space helmets so astronauts can scratch
their noses and chins!

Say it ain't so! I thought Dennis Rodman brought it with him.

"Not much of a disguise."

Whoosh! That went right over my head; I hadn't a clue who Dennis Rodman was
until I just now Googled with "who is Dennis Rodman" -- seems he's a basketball
player or sumtin' who sports unconventional hair styles (pictures of which can
be found at his home page located by Google).

Will he be playing for Earth or Mars in the Solar System Playoffs?

:-)

Now you know that it was sold to us by a Vulcan that had crash landed on
Earth.
Was shown on Enterprise. ;

Hah! 'Sfunny, one colleague at work today said the same thing -- don't know
how I could have missed it since I thought I had all the STAR TREK movies in
my collection.

Ah, Google to the rescue again; "star trek velcro vulcan" returned links to
Episode 28, "Carbon Creek", airdate 25-September-2002 (?). Huh? Is this
something new? The writeups don't resemble re-runs of the 1960s series (and,
as you can probably guess, I don't watch TV though I have 2 home theaters for
watching movies during cloudy nights).

Wasn't in a ST Movie, it was in the latest ST t.v. show Enterprise. Ya,
Enterprise is what's playing now, it started after ST:VOY came to an end and
this one is suppost to be in the Early days of Star Fleet, the NX-01 Enterprise,
first Warp 5 Starship in the fleet.

Ofcouse, I would rather think it came from the Vorlons.

Ah, yes, from BABYLON 5. An acquaintance who used to attend the Amiga users'
group meetings that I frequently hosted 18-13 years ago was the guy who
developed LightWave which was used for all the spaceships and special effects
in B5. The guy's name was Alan Hastings who was a graphic artist at Lockheed
Missiles and Space Co. (now Lockheed-Martin) at that time; he later joined
New-Tek (in Kansas) which marketed LightWave.

The funny thing about VELCRO is that it was developed after observing what
Mother Nature conjured-up 1000s of years ago! :-)
