The title for this article was inspired by my friend, Alice Massey, a former contributor to this column who recently moved near Jacksonville, Florida.

If you are worried by the title that I’m here to talk about those vile creatures Khan put in poor Pavel Chekov’s ear in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, put your mind at ease. They are totally in another dimension along with eugenically enhanced humans. Everyone knows that. I’ve seen that Star Trek movie countless times since its 1982 release. Some things bear repetition.
