I have been a Star Trek fan since I was 6 years old. I often frequented Star Trek conventions and Jimmy was always kind and understanding to his adoring fans. And Trekkies can get a bit weird. I remember one convention that was held in a small hotel room in NYC. There were about 30 of us that attended just to see "Scotty". We sat around in a circle and talked and laughed for hours. Then Jimmy sang Irish love songs to us. He was a fine and gentle man that will be greatly missed and always loved.

I had the good fortune of working near a burn unit when I was an undergraduate biology student. I saw such determination and strength beyond the physical and emotional pain. I learned that my daily stress-outs and problems were small as compared to what these brave persons had to endure just to live. I befriended a dear gentle man who was being treated in the unit and I came to understand peace and acceptance of ones self. This gentleman had lost one leg and most of his fingers in an apartment fire -- but his spirit was large and not at all lost.
I am inspired by all of the patients in that burn unit and by Robert David Hall. He lets us see a man of strength and talent just being a man beyond physical challenges. I think that is what I like about Robert and CSI in general -- we see a cast of less than perfect people just being people with extraordinary talent.
Thank you Robert for being the remarkable and able person you are.
