I heard that Joe Biden asked his secretary to send his condolences to the Vulcan ambassador :laughing:

Sad news. I see this as a pointed reflection on how "my era" is getting old.
I agree with the other comments made about Star Trek being ahead of its time. Look at how many of the things they'd featured in the original and subsequent spin offs that have come true.

- Getting old. Sold the ranch. Sold the tractors. Moved back to the city.
I'm still misty eyed about his passing. However, it's comforting to know he's in a better place now (eternal reruns).

I used to race home after school on my motorcycle to watch the 3:30 reruns on tv, before I had to be at work at 5. This was around 1975-76.
I could usually get home by 3:35. Just after the first commercial break.
RIP Leonard. I really enjoyed your body of work. Even the narratives way back in the day.

The show did have an effect on us. Those first nextel phones with the flip lids looked and sounded an awful lot like a communicator.

Although I've never dressed up or went to a convention, as kids we played Star Trek all the time, and I even have the blue prints to that starship as well as an original Star Fleet complete technical manual, produced in 1975 (which I'm certain could be worth a pretty penny to someone lol).
That show meant a lot to me as a kid watching it, and I'll miss Mr. Spock.
Looking at the life of Leanord Nimoy, he did seem to be a remarkable, intelligent, artistic man, more than just a actor on a decent TV show from years ago.
I'm not so sure what can be said of William Shatner:laughing:
My boys get a huge kick out of some of the original star treck christmas tree ornaments my mom bought years ago.
