Among the many influences that put me where I am today, the lesson a much younger me, sitting by his father's side, took from Star Trek was that properly-applied logic could solve anything; that the Universe in its vast, seeming randomness, was at its core quite comprehensible. It's not a complete philosophy of life, but it's also not a bad place to start. Whether or not he did so on purpose, he taught a lot of lessons to a lot of kids who now have their hands on the various controls of the spaceship we share. Thank you Mr. Nimoy.
