"Are Vulcan's natives 'predatarry'?"
"Not generally. But there HAVE been exceptions."

Wm. Campbell is one of the #MeTVStarTrek guest actors who's clearly having a blast with his part. Stanley Adams, France Nuyen & Roger C. Carmel also come to mind. Even when Campbell returned in "Trouble with Tribbles," he was the FUN Klingon!
