Dale Hoppert commented on Darn Tigh's group Star Trek The Experience"We're not getting The Experience back. It can't continue. We may get something new, even something outwardly similar, but what was is gone. The building is empty and the people have dispersed. That time, that synergy, that convergence of…"
Dale Hoppert commented on Darn Tigh's group Star Trek The Experience"I'll believe it when I see it... and I'll have mixed feelings about it... but I hope they realize now how much STTE and by extension all of us fans contributed to their bottom line over the years. Imagine if they'd continued to cater…"
Dale Hoppert commented on Darn Tigh's group Star Trek The Experience"I am now reliably informed that these are in fact from Michael Westmore's studio. But they look SO familiar!"
Dale Hoppert commented on Darn Tigh's group Star Trek The Experience"Some old friends - or more accurately some busts and statues of some old friends - from STTE will be appearing on Hollywood Treasures on SyFy Wednesday night.

Dale Hoppert replied to Tj Johnson's discussion Star Trek Resort announced! in the group Star Trek The Experience"The tiny bit of research I've done so far indicates that it costs a minimum of around $1500 to fly to Jordan and, from the US West coast, takes about 30 hours including long, seemingly unavoidable layovers. Which is not to say I…"

Christian, Husband, life-long Trekkie
I was born in 1965 and have it on good (parental) authority that I watched The Man Trap, first-run, on my father's knee at not quite two years old and saw TOS first-run thereafter. Star Trek is a part of my earliest memories and I have been a fan all of my life. Before I became a Christian I used to brag that I was more familiar with the ongoing narrative of the Trek universe than I was with the bible. I don't brag about that any more, but it's probably still true! I can recall greeting TAS with excitement and taking it very seriously when it appeared Saturday mornings. I was very skeptical of TNG when it first began but was quickly won over, and followed each of the rest of the series avidly over the years. I have seen each movie the day it opened. I was at Star Trek: The Experience on opening day and closing day and many, many times in between. I really miss that place and look forward to its return somwhere, someday. As for my personal life, I have been married for 16 years and work as a studio engineer for an NPR affiliate radio station in Southern California. I live in a small house in the Angeles National Forest, about 4000 feet up Mt. Baldy. I post as Dale on TrekBBS, so if you're ever there say hello. \\//_ LL&P

Amazing STAR TREK: THE EXPERIENCE documentary NOW STREAMING!!!
Drop what you are doing for the next 90 minutes or so and go watch STAR TREK: MY EXPERIENCE! It's the first part of Vernon Wilmer's epic and highly personal documentary about STTE, its history and his experience working there.
Wilmer was best known to STTE fans as Borg drone Seven of Sixteen, but played many roles at STTE and was the place's unofficial photographer/archivist/documentarian, and he's created a great nostalgia… Continue

My final visit to Star Trek: The Experience
This is an essay I wrote a day or two after my closing day visit to STTE, a place I loved and visited many times over the years. The tone is a little grim and final, but the good news is it looks as though a new version of STTE will open at Neonopolis in downtown Vegas sometime in 2009. Still, I thought these final memories of the original attraction were worth sharing here. Be warned, it's quite long! \\//_ LL&P

Trekcast said… - Hey Dale we have known that for awhile we report on trekcast regularly, on a positive note the contract is signed and the designs are coming together. It was basically the medias daly they for some resone said it would open on the 8th of May but that's just not the case. The media jumped the gun probably got it mixed up with the premiere of the movie, I am sorry to say

- Glad you liked the song. I wrote it in the LV airport on the way home from convention. Writing it cheered me up. Happy to hear it cheered you two also.

V'Jennis posted a blog postThe latest Trek movie.
A quote I read on Facebook: "Don't bankroll the intellectual desolation of the franchise by paying to see the latest film by J. J. Abrams. I have to believe you have better things to spend money on than encouraging Star Trek to be more about explosions and less about finding humanity in the void."
"HEYA. JUST STOPPING BY TO SAY HELLO.HOPE ALL IS WELL IN YOUR NECK OF THE WOODS :-D TAKE CARE. HAVE A GREAT WEEK AHEAD ;-)"
"HOWDY WALTER :-) HOW YOU BEEN? NOT WORKING TOO HARD I TRUST :-D JUST THOUGHT I'D POP BY AND SAY HELLOOOO :-) HAVE A FANTABULOUS SUNDAY. THINK OF ME AS I TOIL AWAY AT WORK LOL"
