So, Spock was not the first space traveler to have pointy ears. There is this character in Planeta Bur, a 1962 film, booting the computer/robot. For all I know, he’s not the first, either, but he made me think of Leonard Nimoy anyway.
And here is a shot of John. Interesting name for a robot/computer, but is it in the same class with HAL 9000 or R2D2?
