Ok, fellow Star Trek fans, here’s a mission for you. Can you spot the technical error in this screen capture from the ST: TOS episode “City on the edge of forever”? If you’ll recall, the story involves Kirk, Spock, and McCoy travelling to 1930 New York City by way of the Guardian of Forever. First aired April 6, 1967, our intrepid heroes must right McCoy’s interference in history in order to restore the timeline, and save the world from being conquered by the Nazis.
Well, I’m sure the sharp eyed among you have noticed the More

Now it’s Leonard Nimoy’s turn. “Spock” is 81 today.
Spock was a major influence on my teenage years. The rational, intelligent outsider, whose presence was always required to save the day, helped me get through times when I thought I might not. His quest for knowledge, his acceptance of what was, his ability to suppress emotions so they would not overwhelm, served as a role model for me. Perhaps not the best role model for a real human being, but one that helped me immensely.
And a couple of episodes where he got his shirt off didn’t hurt, either! (Shatner’s constant “shirt on-shirt off” didn’t have the same effect, for some reason)
Happy Birthday, Mr. Nimoy.
Live long, and prosper.
