You know Scotty always had just a bit of power left for the good Captain. I note this AM that James Doohan our beloved Scotty has died this AM at 5:30 at his home in Redmond Washington.

Good bye Scotty We'll all miss you and thanks for all the good times.

A few more notes on Mr. Doohan. He was a WWII D-Day vet with the Canadian army. He took six rounds loosing a finger and was saved by a silver cigarette case when one hit him in the chest. So not only did he play tough he was. He was born on march 3rd 1920 in Vancouver BC. He is to be cremated and his ashes launched into orbit. Mr Doohan suffered from Alzheimer's and Pneumonia upon his death at age 85. Last year he was given a star on the walk of fame.

3 As a Star Trek purist (it's not really "Star Trek" without the original cast) this is sad news to me indeed. Godspeed, James Doohan.
