I can't believe that he is actually 79..He was so young when he played in StarTrek, I just saw an episode with him a little bit earlier, the second pilot entitled "Where No Man Has Gone Before". It's amazing how time flies by so fast.
Excellent post about the Shat-man. He is an American Icon and I hope he's around for another 79 years. In my blog on today's heroes, I plan to profile his career contributions.
