William Shatner: ‘I don’t know’ George Takei anymore

It seems that George has learned from his past mistakes and bad luck, and has evolved into a fine self-promoter.
The only Shatner/Takei aspect that would have put Takei in the limelight is the roast where Takei was semi-serious/semi-comedic on his feelings towards Shatner. Everything else concerning 'who he is' today, based on my knowledge of the Takei, has been his outspoken attitude on Facebook and his outspoken attitude on LGBT rights.
And, to be fair, Shatner isn't so widely known to the greater public. (No, Trek sites aren't the greater public believe it or not...
)Yeah, there are some casual people who know of Trek and know of 'Captain Kirk' and the face of Shatner, but couldn't put the actor's name to the character. Too, I'm sure there are those who would be more inclined to associate Chris Pine with Captain Kirk than William Shatner due to the new films.
Whut. I love NuTrek but it in no way diminishes from the godhead of Captainness that is William Shatner's Kirk.
It's possible that Shatner may be better known to younger audiences as Denny Crane than Kirk nowadays.

I did love that character. And his catchphrase
It didn't help that The Green Berets was a bad film, one that has shown up on various worst-film lists, and that it deservedly maintains a reputation as such.

What was that phrase again? I forgot.
