Curtains
From: Mr. Locke
> Hello Trek TV, > > Well, it may be true that I haven't written many emails but I have recruited a new listener, a mutual friend of Marc and mine, Dr. Fritz The Physicist. He has joined us on two futuristic video phone calls during which we have listened to your last two pod-casts together. > > Unfortunately none of us could identify the literary or historical source from which the title "The Savage Curtain" derived. > > This is why I'm writing now, because I would like to know if any one in the Trek TV audience knows. > > I suppose the meaning of the title has something to do with the great divide between good and evil, a metaphor. > > Personally I don't think Star Trek should trade, as it so often does, in concepts like good and evil or beauty and ugliness. These are innately subjective ideas and it's disappointing to see them treated as quantifiable truths. > > But not so disappointing that I'll stop watching Star Trek. > > Mr. Locke
