What Are These?

I didn't realise that the missing man

Andrew Koenig (of TV's 'Growing Pains') is the son of Walter Koenig, Chekov of the original 'Star Trek'. Apparently I missed that somewhere. They don't know if he disappeared intentionally or not, but his family is very stressed. According to his father, Andrew Koenig suffers from depression and did not make an expected February 16th flight back to Los Angeles from Vancouver. Police there have tracked some information that indicates he is alive and still in the Vancouver area, perhaps lying low for his own reasons.

Anyway, I hope whatever the reasons everything works out and that he's okay. If for some reason he doesn't want to contact his parents, maybe he'll consider contacting someone else so his friends and family know he's alright.

UPDATE (2/25/10): Andrew Koenig's body was found in the 1000 acre Stanley Park in Vancouver today, his death apparently a suicide. I am so sorry for his family and friends. His father described him as having a lifelong struggle with depression. My thoughts and prayers are with them.
