Yes - sad to hear.

Reminds me of a Star Trek computer game I had. The first time I did something wrong, Spock dies - and this message comes up:

* SPOCK IS DEAD - GAME OVER! *

Oh god, I think I remember that game.

I was very sad to hear this; the orginal Star Trek series was my introduction to SF and I never really left after that. I owe a lot of that to Spock and Leonard Nimoy's portrayal of him.

Something to tie Mr Spock to Tolkien.

And here's the cast of the Hobbit reading "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins"

My hubby LOVES to say "Bilbo Baggins" the way Evangeline Lilly does in this video.
