WWII veteran and Star Trek actor James Doohan dead at 85.
I had the fortune of meeting the gentleman a couple of times, a few years ago, for a few minutes each time. During our few minutes of conversation at Chiller Theatre, or our extended conversation at a comic book convention (where there was no line for him at all), he was the sweetest guy around. A more jovial and friendly guy you'll be hard pressed to find. His autobiography's not a bad read either, if you're a fan of the original series.
