Leonard Nimoy made being a geek cool beofre Microsoft made Bill Gates a household name.  I wanted ot emulate Spock when I was a kid.  I wanted to be the cooly logical data driven character that he was on the show.  I always thought Spock was way cooler than James Tiberius Kirk (even though I loved the name Tiberius and the all out emotionalism of Kirk I identified more with the Spock character as a child)  [little known fact - watch one of the first Season episodes - Where No Man Has Gone Before and if you look closely at the Headstone of Kirk in the episode it is shown as James R Kirk (this episode was one of the first three filmed) so the name was changed to James T for Tiberius Kirk after that intial episode] 

I salute you Leonard Nimoy for making it cool to be a smart intelligent character in Star Trek and your personal quest to be an inspirational human being here on earth.  LIVE LONG AND PROSPER!!

Here's to the countless hours me and my friends spent trying to make each other pass out with the
Vulcan "death" touch! R.I.P. Spock!

He will be missed.  It would be illogical to feel any emotion though.   :dance:
