Case in point: Matt didn't mention Star Wars or Star Trek, which many
would consider staples of fandom. I think the only way to get a real
feel for fandom is to go to a "regular" (meaning, one that is not half
Open Source) con and just absorb the experience. Regardless of how
many books I've read or movies I've seen, I never really had a clue
what fandom was until I went to a con.
