I’ve started this entry a number of times, but I’m still having trouble thinking what

           to say. None of the words that come to mind right now convey properly the effect 

           that this man, actor Leonard Nimoy, playing his signature role as Mr. Spock, had on

           our culture, and on me. Gene Roddenberry created an entire universe of starships, 

           planets and characters, and yet he always said that Spock was the heart of Star Trek. 

           Yes, I am, I was and always shall be a Trekkie. Live long and prosper folks.
