OOC:
My boy, James Doohan, finally got his dying wish early this morning. The man who played Scotty, engineer extraordinaire (and, regardless of what people think, NOT the inspiration for Donnelly) for 4 decades has had his ashes launched into space.
Hat's off to you.
RIP James Doohan 1920-2005
The crowd cheers as Falcon 9 lights up the sky
