For Matthias Lang, long-standing member of the FSCDC and among all his other accomplishments a moderate Trekkie, who didn’t receive a proper dance from me when he should have. The Helix (in strathspey time) is taken from Hana by Alex Gray.

Note: At the start of this dance, a Vulcan salute may be substituted for the customary bow and curtsey.
