I am an old-school Classic Trek Fan, so I am REALLY enjoying your postings, ETL!

I have a personal connection to Classic Trek...Leonard grew up in my Dorchester neighborhood, his Dad was a barber, and the Family went to Temple Mishkin T’Fillah where Spock picked up the Vulcan Salute on the High Holy Days. (It is based on the Priestly Blessing in Numbers (may The LORD Bless and Keep You).

Temple Mishkin T’Fillah later moved to Newton and the building was sold to the Alma Lewis School of Afro-American Arts. However, the Verse from Zechariah (”Not by Might, Not By power, But By My Spirit, says the LORD”) is still prominently carved into the side of the abandoned building.

William Shatner’s wife that died tragically in a swimming pool went to high school with my sister.

I remember watching the premier episode of the premier season.

Thanks for the memories! :-)

Interesting. I thought he was pretty good hosting the speculation documentary “In Search Of”, too.
