Re: OT: James Doohan
Frankly I am in a quandry about this. Was he actually a great man?
I was all setup for something along the line of 'He's no Pope.' when it occured to me that he'd probably made more people laugh, cry, smile and enjoy themselves than any Pope.
Thus, logically, an actor most famous for being on the recieving end of a line that was never spoken ('Beam me up Scotty') was a better man than any Pope. At least by my book.
That last statement should be wrong, but I don't think it is. I am confused.
Regardless of my confusion and/or borderline schizophrenia he did seem a genuinely nice man and its always a shame when one of those shuffles of this mortal coil. Sad news.
