Yea its not surprising, he has been in the hospital twice in the past week, its sad. He was quite a interesting guy, even served as a Sargent in the Army in his youth before getting into acting (as did Doohan ie: Scotty ... scotty lost a finger storming the beach at Normandy and wore a prosthetic during the show / movies).
Besides hunting / shooting I'm a pretty big Star Trek fan. I have a collection of screen used costumes from the movies / tv shows.
Anywho Nimoy was a good guy with alot of positive influence on the world. On of my favorite quotes from him was "The miracle is the more we share, the more we all have".
RIP.

Tonight I saw a story that says that the "Westboro church" wants to picket Nimoy's funeral! How would you like to have your ass kicked by a bunch of Trekkies?

Its just a method to keep their name in the news, to keep that 15 minutes of fame going.
Those people are idiots though, they tried to picket it, but couldn't find the address... lol
On a serious note, we had a local soldier killed in Iraq, his funeral was about 10 minutes from my house. I happened to drive past as it was going on. Literally surrounding the church standing shoulder to shoulder, was a line of several hundred no-nonsense Vets from all across America there to protect things and make sure the service wasn't interrupted. Brought a tear to my eye.
