Leonard Nimoy (March 26, 1931 - February 27, 2015) RIP
Although he was an accomplished actor in other venues, he will forever be known as Spock. Interesting!

I was surprised.
What a great story.
I'm saddened he's gone.

I must be the geek. I did know that, but never had seen that interview with the in depth back story of it's origin. I just had heard that it was from synagogue as a child that he saw the Rabbi do it.
