Can we agree on the "Science Fiction" Group now?
Mission statement:

"The purpose of the Science Fiction Group is to discuss, review, and promote science fiction (Star Trek, Andromeda, Babylon 5, etc...) in any medium, such as TV, movies, books, games and so on."

It was supposed to be a Star Trek forum, but we will let in all Sci-Fi, but I assume most of the people will be Trekkers.

I agree with the mission statement, and I like that it's all-inclusive to the wide array of science-fiction series and stories out there.

23. None of those are science fiction
None of those shows had enough hard science to carry in a thimble. They're fantasy at best, westerns in strange costumes at worst.

27. It says a lot about DU when,,,
you get a lot of responses to a thread about starting a SF DU group, and no one is interested in started a group for figuring out how to create a leftwing counterpart to the rightwing media propaganda machine.
