    Don't taunt 2008, it's been an asshole to cool celebrities so far.

    Your ignorance offends the hardcore geek in me! (unless I'm being wooshed)

    in addition to being the computer voice, she also played in ALL 5 series, Earth Final Conflict, B5, and a bunch of other movies/tv shows.
    In addition to producing and writing several.
    No one probably knows how much she influenced the shows during the past 40'ish years, but probably quite a bit.

    I could go on, but I suspect I'm already showing myself to be way too much of a trekkie/trekker/whateveryouwanttocallit

    She also was a recurring character in the original series - Nurse Chapel. Nice legs.

    Curse you 2008.. I'll be so happy when your cruel visage is torn away in a couple weeks.

    lol yeah that might not be a bad idea when 2008 is over. Let's see, off the top of my head:

    George Carlin, Heath Ledger, Bernie Mac, Isaac Hayes, Don LaFontaine, Estelle Getty, Bettie Page, Miriam Makeba, Tim Russert, Roy Scheider, Paul Newman, and now Majel Roddenberry. That's TWELVE fucking awesome people.

    And that's not even counting the NIU shootings and Jennifer Hudson's family being murdered...

    Fuck you dude, Majel Barrett was THE computer voice for Star Trek and rocked Lwaxana Troi in TNG. Have some respect.

    Might as well bitch about Don LaFontaine being praised while you're at it.
