Well put, Tracey. You summed that up very well. The way you stated that also can demonstrate how scifi fans aren't necessarily geeks or nerds, but people who appreciate imaginative and exciting writing. I like Star Trek and B5 as much for the real human drama and exploration of moral issues as much as pure action or high tech sets and effects. Frankly, I've noticed that most scifi/animation/fantasy/comic fans are more open-minded and diverse in our interests than those people who still tend to look down on the scifi/sword-and-sorcery crowd.

I've notices this among my friends, my Internet friends and on the net as a whole. Many scifi sites seem to cover all of these categories probably because they are aware of the same trend.
