I bet.

I'm a hardcore scifi and I still maintain Trekkies are weird.
Hell, I'm involved in WRITING a couple of RPG's and I study
computer game design and I still maintain Trekkies are weird :P

Not all of us are weird. I know lots of ST fans who are much more normal than (as the article suggests,) your average football fan. I guess the difference falls somewhere between "watch the show" and "live the show."

Anyway, I have very close friends who are members of the SCA and they're *much* wierder and freakier than your average Trek fan. I'm sure my opinion will now prompt angry squawks from Tucson. :)
