I knew him from The Dead Zone which was a great show that should have had one more season. He was also in TNG for one episode.

He was also an important character in Myst 5.

Art Bell's Radio Shows in Prey was just one of those ideas that was really smartly implemented and added greatly to the game. As for R. Lee Ermey, he just seemed like he was too tough to ever leave this world, and I'll never forget him as Gny. Sgt. Hartman. I'm really surprised to see both of them go. R.I.P. to these fine gentleman.
