Coolness for nerds.
Zachary Quinto was awesome, got to meet him which was great and loved the Q&A. Do have to say however that he was the draw for this ST fan and although I have a great deal of respect for Carrie Fisher can’t say that she was one of the reasons that I attended in spite of the articles claim that both would be of interest to Trek fans.
Fan Expo 2013 was definitely nerdvana and I cant wait for next year π π
