>>> "Would that all SF fans know who a plebeian was." <<<It might surprise you to learn that many do.
>>> "Would that all SF fans bother to read something more challenging than an extended comic sans graphics..." <<<
And what crystal ball informed you that they don't?
Literary stereotyping is just another form of racial profiling (i.e., determining class from preconceived notions about behavior).
>>> "You may take umbrage, and a petty insult about a 'limited imagination' is weak- save your pity for those that are impressed with the imagination displayed on Star Trek." <<<
Why should I pity those who have imagination enough to see beyond the narrow confines of a mundane reality? Star Trek is no more than a speck of sand on a vast beach of imaginative fiction, but at least it strives to inspire and nourish the dreamer. Science fiction, taken as a whole, is just as sophisticated as much of what passes for mainstream literature.
>>> "Just put on your tights and go save us from the evil SeriousLiterature Man!!!!!" <<<
You betcha! Of course, in the guise of mid mannered John Dem you like Lost in Space, so who knows what mainstream drivel the high-falootin' SeriousLiterature Man might defend! ;^)

Your friendly neighborhood AuPh-man
