I am now actually getting my historical news from Doctor Who communities (in this case doctoreleven).

"Rare Roman suit of armour found at Caerleon dig"

(Why do I not actually have a tag for Romano-British stuff?)

Makes sense. Everything I know, I learned from Star Trek.

I once saw a program about how Star Trek had inspired all these scientists to create things, so why not?

It's very true. Nichelle Nichols inspired lots of women to drop home ec for science. Some of us even did quite well.

Star Trek also inspired lots of medical advances as to the possibilty of advancement.

And Doctor Who, (well actually Harry Potter) inpsired me to look deeper into English history than the glut I got Western Civ at college.

That is supposed to be a part of the BBC's remit, isn't it? Doctor Who was nominally educational...
