   Yes.  At age 91 it is now rather late in the game...but you never know.   
      
   It could have easily been done--this being Science Fiction, after all--by   
   doing something like: "Oh, look...Captain Kirk was caught in the Nexux after   
   all and he's actually fine after having popped back out."   
      
   I assume there was $$$ or lack of interest or hidden politics we'll never   
   know involved.   
      
   In the meantime, I *am* enjoying the "Strange New Worlds" clips on   
   Youtube...it's the most "real Trek" I've seen for along time.
