William Shatner’s $30 Billion Kickstarter Campaign to Save California David Pogue April 17, 2015

William Shatner. Wow. He’s 84 years old, looks 65, and juggles a schedule that would exhaust a team of 10. Book projects, TV projects, tech projects, horse-riding projects, charity projects. And his willingness to embrace the tech world is impressive; he’s got YouTube channels, he’s conducted Kickstarter projects, and he has a huge Twitter presence: more than 2 million followers. (He’s tweeted 30,000 times so far — and yes, it’s really him.)

The hour he spent with me in a Yahoo Tech Mix interview wasn’t even enough to scratch the surface.

Thanks! Never heard of them before and Julie Newmar had her niche (back in the day) and probably has a decent income via residuals.

Not a very good actor (unless he was trying for whatever he projected) but enjoyable to watch and he seems to be a good man. “Penny” seems to like him too....

Isn`t Seattle to LA downhill all the way?

Yep. Wall maps don't lie, if you believe in gravity.

They’d have the money if they stopped all the stupid trains and build desalinization plants instead.

The Columbia River’s a lot closer, and has more water than California could ever dream of using.
