The guy who played Scotty on the original Star Trek just died...very sad. He was always one of my favorite ST characters.

I heard about that at the supper table.

Poor guy. Pneumonia is no fun.

[Bregor]

It is a sad day for us all.

[Arathorn III]

I heard about this on the radio. :(

[Aragil]

It sure is. In honour of this, whenever I say "Beam me up, Scotty!" at a sleepover when everyone is trying to sleep, I will add "and rest in peace."

:( :( :( I hate it when things like this happen.

[Prince Dol Amroth]

Finally, Scottie got to say, "Beam me up!"

[Barahir]

Aye... :(

[Ditz]

It was expected, but it's still very sad.

[Arathorn III]

He was Canadian, too. :(

Scotty is one of my favorite characters. James Doohan provided the voice-overs for many of the characters in the original show, such as Trelane's father in "The Squire of Gothos". RIP, Jimmy.

FYI, he died on the 36th anniversary of man's first landing on the moon. To learn more about him, check out this link: James Doohan bio (http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/news/article/12920.html)

I do think I heard they were sending some of his ashes into space.
