Dear Mister Wonderful,

	A friend and I were getting tickets for a concert and happened upon a
Sci Fi convention in another part of the same building. As we watched
the Romulans and Klingons and Princess Leia and the storm troopers (who
seemed, in truth, a little short) we came up with some important
questions for you:

	1. If Yoda and Q got in a fight, who would win?

	2. Or, if that's too easy, if the whole force of Jedi Knights got into
a fight with Q, who would win?(Some thought Yoda wouldn't have a chance
on his own.)

	3. If the Star TREK fans at a convention got into a fight with the Star
WARS fans, who would win?

	4. How come nobody dresses as Vogons for these things?


Yours sincerely,
LMNOP

Dear QWERTY,

	Oh, dearie, dearie me... better tighten the buttons on my old labcoat
here;  I'm afraid my geek is showing.

	1. Yoda and Q, inarguably the most intelligent and powerful characters
in their respective series, would most likely retire to the hotel bar
and share Slash fiction stories of Wet Wesley and Lubricated Luke.  If
they *had* to fight (because the Organians had run out of Gorn), it is
likely that Q would win, a millisecond after blinking and turning Yoda
back into Grover.

	2.  The entirety of the Jedi Knights assembled *might* be able to
defeat Q if he fell over on his ass laughing at their biologically
absurd "species" designs.  Dude, all those tuber things coming off their
heads are probably cancerous.

	3.  Star Wars fans are younger and quicker, but more gullible.  Star
Trek fans are in the upper weight division, but have recently come to
question their faith. (Et tu, Enterprise?)  The Trek fans have got
Klingons on leave from the Renn Faire in their corner, but the Star
Warriors can bean them in the latex head with prop Thermal Detonators. 
I'd say the real winners here would be the Doctor Who fans, smothering
the wounded with their giant scarves.

	4.  Vogons are single-minded, selfish, horribly bloated creatures with
terrible skin conditions that write bad poetry.  *Everyone* goes to the
convention as a Vogon.
