Here's a news story:

But... never in the show did Captain Kirk say "Beam me up, Scotty," contrary
to this article.

There was a nice piece on NPR today. What would Star Trek have
been without Scotty. Incomplete. He got interviewed on our area radio
station years ago. I called in with my Scott's broag-e'. He picked right
up on it - it was hilarious. The program host had clued him in to who I
was
as someone involved in astronomy in my area. We had one helluva
conversation.
The man was very well read and informed. Years later... I ran into Scotty
in
the Northwest. He remembered me from the program in my area. He always
impressed me as a man of great stamina for one thing, and again... well
read
and informed, and interested in science. A unique personality and hard to
replace.

Beam me up Scotty. (and I dont give a Unicorn's Arse if he ever actually
said
it or not!).
