nancylebovI don't-- people don't apologize for being interested in football, so why should I apologize for knowing a fair amount about golden age science fiction?
Addendum: It seems to me that I frequently hear people apologizing for geek interests, even in geekish environments. They use phrases like "I should get a life" or "too much free time". I'll post the next one I hear.
Told you so: Note the subject line. Unfortunately, I didn't check the time for the addendum, but I don't think it's been much over an hour.
