Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.
How very sad. She was a fantastic lady from everything I could tell. I loved her role as Lwaxana Troi, she was always great as the computer's voice, and her beginning as Number One and as Nurse Christine Chapel in the original series was always neat.

Black news, indeed.
Aw. :(

Well this comes as something of a shock, espeically after recent news of her involvement in the new star trek film. Having been there all along her presence will be sorely missed.
I guess star Trek never will be the same from this point on
RIP MBR.
