Wow, just yeaterday we were taking a limo to O'Hare airport which had a tv in it and we found an episode of "Get Smart" playing on one of the local Chicago stations. I remember saying that I hadn't seen an episode of this show in years.

It is all but confirmed now. It's a good source I have and it is for sure correct. Now we play the waiting game and wait until it is announced over the wire.

That's sad.

Coincidentally, I have a co-worker who ALSO goes by the SAME name.

I hope this isn't true.

Where did you find out about this?

B/C I've just checked imdb.com just now and says that he's pretty much still alive.

He was the voice of Inspector Gadget in all the animated versions that was released, plus he did the voice of Brian in the 1999 live-action Inspector Gadget movie.

I grew up watching Inspector Gadget, so I'm familiar with Don. RIP.
