Beam Me Up, Scotty!

[shaveice]

hey, i can't believe no one's written anything about scotty yet! that guy was cool and online reports clearly describe him as someone who really appreciated his many fans, often attending star trek conferences even when the crowd was small.

he's gonna be missed....

When he "retired" up here to the Pacific Northwest (Redmond, WA), he stayed active in community theater until he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. He was a very giving guy and his passing is going to leave a big hole in our community.

Re: beam me up scotty!!!

There have been times in the usenet startrek newsgroup during the middle to late 90's that every so often someone would post that either DeForest Kelly (Dr. McCoy) or James Doohan (Scotty) had past away, which later turns out to be a hoax.

Re: beam me up scotty!!!

i was never a big star trek nerd (despite the fact that i am a card-carrying dork), but i do know that scotty helped me hone my counterfeit scottish accent...was anyone else annoyed by all of the half-witted "beam me up" jokes the local newscasters indulged?
