I think William Shatner has an expansive effect on people's sense of humanity. Almost any North American shares a common understanding about him, and because of that, he knows something about all of us. We grew up with him entertaining us. It's deep somehow, self-affirming somehow, to partake in his zeitgeist eucharist. He has always been, and will always be, our friend (in some mediated form or another).
