1 – We as Scifi fans like the name Scifi, not Syfy. We never thought this was catchy, cool or anything of the sort. In fact check your server logs when you have a chance, and see what most people type in.

2 – On the Scifi Channel, we expect to see Science Fiction, many of us are appalled when we see this:

This is and never will be science fiction as the above image isn’t the same as the below one. You can’t expect the Iron Sheik and a Firefly class star-ship to appeal to the same person in mass numbers.

And also from the deep belief that geeks have been running the show for thousands, if not millions of years… and most likely will continue to run the show for just as long. If we survive as a species.
