:19:02
and you were in my seat.
:19:05
And cut! Very nice.
:19:08
LeVar Burton: There was a young man
who was confined to a wheelchair,
:19:10
and his name was Jordan La Forge.
:19:14
The young man was given
6 months to a year to live,
:19:17
and, uh, he attributes
the fact that he lived
:19:20
for many years after his prognosis
:19:23
to the fact that he watched Star Trek.
:19:25
Finally, when he did pass away,
:19:28
Gene just thought that
having somebody in that place,
:19:32
you know, as Geordi,
would be a perfect example,
:19:36
a perfect sort of-- A nice thing
to do in memory of him.
:19:40
Originally, Geordi
was the pilot of the ship,
:19:42
so he wanted the pilot to be,
you know, the blind man,
:19:44
and the blind man is the one
that's flying this ship.
:19:54
I watched the original series
:19:55
with my mother and brother
when I was a kid,
:19:58
and I enjoyed it.
:20:01
At this point, I enjoy
his enthusiasm more.
:20:06
I enjoy the shows, I enjoy
the conventions, I like dressing up,
:20:11
I love dressing her up,
but I enjoy his fanaticism.
:20:17
It's contagious.
:20:19
Crosby: And what makes you
a fanatic as opposed to a fan?
:20:23
I think the fact that
I'm so much into it.
:20:26
I do a lot of collecting.
I relate to so much of it.
:20:31
I know a lot about it.
:20:33
It's more than just a casual
"l enjoy the show, I enjoy the concept."
:20:38
I'm really into it.
:20:40
This is the Trek room.
:20:42
This is, you know, my room.
:20:44
I can design it
the way I want.
:20:45
I can put what I want in it.
:20:47
Woman: Although you do notice
it's spilling out
:20:49
into the other areas
of the house.
:20:51
Y es.
:20:52
This is the bathroom,
:20:54
and we've carried
the Trek theme in here.
:20:57
We have our Starfleet towel set,
