**SMV** , in cutting and pasting, may I suggest that you just do so with the other poster’s IQs? No particular reason to quote the entire previous post. Previous IQs: Were you Spock’s intended? - Not T’Pau, but T’Pring, on _ST:TOS_ Were you the only person to turn down a seat on the Federation Council? - This was T’Pau Did you ask for an action figure of you to be created, just so you could see it before vetoing its marketing? - Tom Selleck; he brought it along with him for an interview with David Letterman DQs: American? (repeated) Scientist or inventor? Born since 1950? One DQ reserved. IQs: Are you mentioned in a song in _Grease_? Did you play Ross’s Asian onetime girlfriend on _Friends_? Were you Topol’s signature role? ---

When posting on my laptop, as now, yes. But it’s a hassle when I have to edit and trim on my tiny little iPhone 5; easier to quote the whole post. IQs: 1. I am not Troy Donahue, whom Sandra Dee, - as imagined by Betty Rizzo - warns to “keep your filthy paws off my silken drawers; would you try that crap with Annette?”. 2: Take a DQ. 3: I am not a rich man. Nor am I Tevye. ---
