Dead at 85. Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott was my favorite of Star Trek's supporting characters, and a patron saint of all IT people who've been called upon to do the impossible again and again. Oddly, I watched the episode The Deadly Years just last night, and saw Scotty come within minutes of succumbing to radiation poisoning and extremely accelerated aging.
