    Love world of warcraft. Started playing Skyrim but took an arrow to the knee.

    Also read way to many nutritional papers, books, blogs. Pretty much my second full time job.

    Well I've just spent the last two hours at work discussing the merits of what order to show Star Wars to your kids so they get the most out of it. Release order? Episode order? Others? BUT I know I'm a nerd because we decided that we'd need to have at least 3 kids to test it on in order to see it's impact not only on their enjoyment and understanding of said series but also to better *kitten* the wider impact, if any, on their lives [political inclination, average lifetime earning and average lifetime relationship length (both friends and lovers.)]

    now my opinion on viewing order is to show them in release order... with the unedited original films.... (han shoots first, no Hayden Christensen at the end) but then after III continue and show the updated original trilogy again since they'll "get more" out of it this time...

    i feel nerdy for even having an opinion on this.

    It's clearly a competition between Sisko and Picard, but I have to go with Picard on this one.
