Re: OT: James Doohan

What is poignant for me is how little I knew about him.
I found out a lot yesterday -- like the fact he served in the Canadian army at Normandy & was severely wounded there (took 6 machine gun bullets, including one to the chest!). I also didn't know he suffered from Alzheimer's. I did know he started in radio as a voice man, doing different accents, although I have to admit I found it strange to hear him speak in roles other than Scotty. I understand SpikeTV will be playing a couple of ST episodes featuring Scotty today if I'm not mistaken.
