Great explanation on why Star Trek is a "Phenomonon"

I loved this movie. A great deal of effort was obviously put in by the creators of this documentary of Trekkers/Trekkies. Although some people may seem like they are going way too far, it's just another reminder that Trekkies believe in IDIC, (Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations) and treats everyone as equals, no matter what race, religion, opinion, appearance, or "Trekkieness". :o) Full "10" by me.
