My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Re: Scotty is dead!!
Well he was 85. But the person for whom this is going to suck the most is his 5 yearold daughter who isn't going to know her dad.

That series was beyond its time, yet had some timeless archtypes.

Re: Scotty is dead!!
Mr. Scott, you'll now have plenty of time to catch up on your technical journals.
RIP James. Thanks for your service in WW2. Scotty was always my favourite Star Trek character.

Re: Scotty is dead!!
Ah, I hadn't heard this (I'm a bit isolated and tend to avoid media anyway). I am sad, but 85 is a good age. I know it may sound silly, but I think the Kirk- Spock-McCoy-Scotty relationships set the tone for what I looked for in close friendships as I grew up. I got all teary the first time I saw the end of "Wrath of Khan."
Cheers to you, Mr. Scott/James Doohan. Tonight, it'll be whiskey instead of tequila, in your honor. Thanks for the memories.
