Just read that Leonard Nimoy died, aged 83.

Here's a link: http://enews.earthlink.net/article/top?guid=20150227/cbba3ffa-5ab4-4305-bcfa-ec79b3b0bf66 He was more the reason I watched Star Trek than any of the other actors.

Oh, that is sad. I was never much of a Star Trek fan, but I did enjoy watching the occasional episode when I was outvoted as to program choice while growing up. Spock was always the most memorable character to me, and to all Trekkies, I'm sure it's a tragic loss.

Such a sad day for all of the science fiction community.

I am so bummed out. He helped so many people think about the future in a positive way. I wonder if Big Bang Theory will do something to remember him.

Does anyone else remember when Nimoy did the show "In Search of..."? I was just thinking and I realized how much of a presence he was in our culture. He will be missed. ETA: As I was posting this, apparently, Leonard Nimoy made a trip to Sioux Falls (where I live) in 1981 and it was a big deal because one of the local TV stations played a clip from an interview he did there.

He'll definitely be missed.

Yeah, my parents had that show on all the time. I tried to catch any interviews he did; he struck me as a man of depth and intelligence and I found myself fascinated by whatever he had to say.

I remember In Search of. His voice made the show.

I enjoyed his presence on Twitter. He signed all his posts LLAP. It amused me to think of him tweeting. He will be missed.
