Definitely! The local radio station was playing an interview from several years back before the Alzheimer's took over. He's not Scottish but he thought that any good engineer should speak Scottish! He also invented the Klingon language. He said is was speaking in Mongolian and he decided to drop all the vowels and this was Klingon.
I think for us in "geekdom", we feel like we lost someone. I mean what Sys Admin at one time or another has not thought of, "What would Scotty say?", when they are being asked about how to get an impossible task done by the boss. Or, when your server goes down in the middle of the day, and people are ticked. He was 'da man!
