here is an interesting fact about James Doohan. he is the one who invented the Klingon language.

Really touching that his ashes were flown into space.😢

He was at D day? As heroic in real life as he was on Star Trek. To boldly go.

FearsomeArtist5172, I'm sorry for your loss. I will keep you in prayer.
Player ninaraewln
Wow! Scotty actually got beamed up. Sad to hear about the pulmonary fibrosis though. I'm going to have to pay more attention to those reruns and my movies.

FearsomeArtist5172, Best of Luck and Prayers...

Never knew that. Another actor missing fingers is Gary Burghoff from M*A*S*H, though he was born that way...
Guillermo Jr.
R K Emery, fun!
Pam
Didn't the actor who played Radar in M*A*S*H have some sort of defect on one of his hands too?
R K Emery
When we answer a question correctly we get points...what if anything are they good for????
