First you have to know how many O's there are in Google.
Oh, BTW Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead -- just like Trip.

Re: Is Bartell LaRue still alive ?
^ I may be playing "Dumbdumb's advocate" here, but I know, speaking for myself, asking my fellow trek enthusiasts/SF fans about things is a lot less impersonal than using a search engine. It gives one at a least a slight sense of human interaction. Especially when one finds one's self spending large quantities of time alone...
That's just my two quatloos...

I really like questions like this because we learn about Trek this way. For instance, I now know who voiced the guardian and when he died - didn't know that before I read this. If it ever comes up in a trivia game I'm all set now!

I'd also support Memory Alpha as a source for Trek information.

Re: Is Bartell LaRue still alive ?
The voice of the Guardian in Yesteryear (animated series episode) was SO goofy and disappointing. I believe James Doohan did that one, and I'm thinking "oh come ON...!" I suppose it could well be that he never saw the original episode and neither had the producers or director...
I know Jimmy could've come a lot closer to the original sound of the Guardian, if so directed. I recall he was the voice of Sargon in the original series, and probably a couple of other deep, solemn, echoey alien voices, too...

^^^Frankly, to my way of thinking, why they died is kind of a morbid thing to ask. It's sad that they're gone...but I don't care to know what they suffered from. It's the life that matters, no matter how short, not the cause of death.

Re: Is Bartell Larue still alive ? :The voice of the Guardia
Maybe. I think it's perfectly normal for most people to wonder how someone died. When someone dies, whether it's a celebrity or a friend or co-worker, the first question people usually ask is "What happened?"
As I stated in my post, I was surprised to see so many of those actors die at a young age. If they were in their 70's or 80's, it wouldn't be much of a shock, but there are people listed in their 40's & 50's which begs the question - "What happened?"

Re: Is Bartell Larue still alive ? :The voice of the Guardia
I agree (pretty much at any age) people ask "how did they die?" (myself included).
After asking family, friends co-workers and such, more people (like a 75-25 ratio) said it would be a bit to morbid so I decided against listing how they died.
There are enough sites on the net that list how people died so I just figured folks could just look it up for themselves if they were that interested in knowing.
Just so ya know I do appreciate any an all input though.
I have thought about doing that but as mentioned, it is a bit morbid.
