Not mine. Nor most of the sci-fi fans I know. My father-in-law and my virgin ex-roommate are about the only exceptions.

The man that told Star Trek fans to "get a life" and who wanted to put as much distance between himself and the role of Kirk as humanly possible? I could see Koenig, but Shatner?
