A sad day indeed.  He was an iconic figure and will be forever remembered as Spock.  Had a great career as a narrator, but he could never play another film character.  RIP Mr. Spock!

He stopped smoking 30 years ago.  Still,  the damage was done.

f**k you cancer, and COPD, and specially the stupid little paper sticks we refer to as cigarrettes.

Guessing that he quit in 1985 when he was 53.  So he probably smoked for 30 years or more would be my estimate.  Thats a lot of damage to undo.  The body is pretty amazing but still.   I know several people who smoked up until that pesky Surgeon General report in the early 60s came out and they are still kicking.

Agree - I prefer to think he would have died much earlier had he not stopped at 53.  Still,  cancer is a complicated, cell division gone wild,  so who knows.  My wife smokes a pack a day and I gave up trying to convince her to stop - it was bad for my health.

Good night to pull out a Star Trek blueray and celebrate the old vulcan.
