The most level headed person on Star Trek.

[@danbasta3677]

Mr. Spock was also level headed as well to. The Captain with his impeteous nature, guided by Spock's logic, along with the good Doctor's humanity, is what reslly made this show above and beyond anything else that followed it.

[@jerricho11]

It's funny cause he is and he isn't. He can look at a situation and analyze it in a very clinical dispassionate way, but in a discussion, he's fire and brimstone. In other words, on a mission he's level headed, calm and collected but talking to Spock, he swears up a storm and raises his own blood pressure.

[@donkey3187]

no, that would be Spock...cool, clam, collected, logical.

[@virginiaconnor8350]

Troy Ortega True. Just think in 2 years, We would've been 100 in March. I think Gary Sinise would make a better Dr.McCoy; he not only looks likes younger Dr, but could more easily play Bones than Karl (not that Karl can't). It's just that when Gary played in "The Green Mile", I kept picturing him as a future portrayed of Bones, not Karl.

Dee Kelley prized *_all_* the letters he received from fans who went into medical professions.

In EMT training,a classmate was having trouble assessing a "patient" manikin as the instructor threw various scenarios at her to assess & treat. Finally, because she wasn't getting any improvement on the patient's condition,I was told to step in. I verbalized that"I am checking for a pulse.I am detecting no pulse.I am checking for respirations, I am detecting no respirations.I am commencing CPR.." After the required CPR cycles,I reassessed the manikin before locking eyes with the instructor & saying"He's dead,Jim.You get his wallet.I'll get his watch."
