Don’t know how you all feel about Gene Roddenberry who kick started the whole Trek franchise and everything that came after it.

He is definitely someone that has affected a lot of lives beyond the work that he did and the life that he led.

For all his shortcomings, he is someone I look up to that has made humanity look at itself in the mirror and seriously think about what we all see in each other through all the shows and characters that he helped to create.

… btw … this post is another Trek thing where in chatting with all you led me down to a page that noted that today is the memorial of Roddenberry’s passing in 1991.
