Not that long ago, in a galaxy quite
nearby, two rival factions battled for dominance over nerdkind...
On one side, stood the devotees of Lucas. "Star Wars is the best," they
said, "Star Trek is for losers! The Empire would conquer the Federation

technobabble! Trekkies are stupid!" On the other, the devotees of
Roddenberry. "Star Trek is the best! Star Wars is for blind fools! The
Federation is good, capable, and Starfleet could run circles around the
Imperial Navy! Star Wars is for nutty folks who believe they are really
Jedi! Star Wars is antitechnological, facist, and filled with poor
moral
examples!"
Some held themselves aloof, some rushed in, but in the end, none lost
and none gained, and the geekiest of nerds and the nerdiest of geeks
bunkered down. They debated the virtues of Kirk and Qui Gon, X-Wing and
Enterprise, Borg and Clonetrooper, and the Empire against the
Federation. The camps waned and grew, until the camps filtered into
