Absolutely devastated by the news ..
A much loved TV Icon ...he will be greatly missed and not just by me ..
The needs of the many were greatly served by the life of the one..
LLAP Trekkies everywhere.
Goodnight Spock
Return to the stars my friend
It is a logical and fitting end

Very sad news indeed, when his COPD was first announced, I knew he was on his way out, but even so, it is sad to see the man behind the logical Mr. Spock pass away...
He has been, and always shall be our friend...

So ..is Obama a closet Trekkie ?

Long before being nerdy was cool, there was Leonard Nimoy. Leonard was a lifelong lover of the arts and humanities, a supporter of the sciences, generous with his talent and his time. And of course, Leonard was Spock. Cool, logical, big-eared and level-headed, the center of Star Trek’s optimistic, inclusive vision of humanity’s future.
I loved Spock.
In 2007, I had the chance to meet Leonard in person. It was only logical to greet him with the Vulcan salute, the universal sign for “Live long and prosper.” And after 83 years on this planet – and on his visits to many others – it’s clear Leonard Nimoy did just that. Michelle and I join his family, friends, and countless fans who miss him so dearly today."

All we need is a Genesis machine and a planet to drop his body onto.
