I knew George was gay in the 90’s & he’s never ever made a media event out of his relationship with his long time partner.

George is a gentle, funny, karaoke singin’ character that I’ve had the great pleasure of spending many long silly hours with.

Shatner, on the other hand (with whom I’ve gratefully met but only once) is a tinitus tortured, whining whatsit that demands he be adored for his non-existent charm & sorely unfunny self-depricating humor.

George tells several stories about Shatner in his guest appearances but all are good-natured & not in anyway rude, or in the slightest, mean; & just going on what I know alone…if George says he invited Shatner, I side with George.

Personally I can’t see Takei excluding him & I damn well can’t imagine it, with the still very recent death of Jimmy Doohan (Scotty).

So whatever has transpired, these folks all know they are forever linked. Differences aside, the cast of Original Trek, whether big or bit part, know the gravity their performances have had on generations–the space program to mention the very least. The first interacial kiss.

So big props to you all. Even Mr. Shatner. Respect, heal up & rock on! Fandom Forever!
