I was catching up online after I got home when I read the news on Mark Evanier's blog. Then I went to Yahoo for confirmation, which is something I usually don't do for news like this.
Not only that, but director Joseph Pevney, who directed 35 theatrical films plus numerous television episodes of the 1960s and 1970s, including 2 classic Star Trek episodes "The Trouble With Tribbles" and "City On The Edge Of Forever" passed away today as well.
Condolences to family, friends and fans.
