He lived long and prospered.
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

Damn. I've never been a Star Trek fan, but I've always liked him.
Of course, there's nothing to be sad about. He lived to be 83!
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

They should take his body to the genesis planet. It worked in the third movie.

The clip in the article about where the Vulcan greeting came from is charming.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Not much into ST, but he seemed like a decent guy.

Damn...just, damn.
I have no shame in saying I'm a trekkie. Watched every episode, and still Spock was my favorite character.
