i met a b7 fan in a much stranger way.
me and my sisters adore horses and have 12, and we nicknamed them after members of the b7 crew, for example the one that hates the others and is a loner is avon, this young crazy foal we have who loves kicking the others is dayna etc.
zoe and i were out riding and we met this horse with one eye (it had been surgically removed or something) and we jokingly named him travis. we visited him for many months and one day we were in his paddock talking to him when his owner came down. and said hi, and we talked for a while and the lady said something like, 'travis loves company' for a minute it didn't register and i said 'do you mean travis is his name?' and she laughed and said 'it's a charactor from some show who doesn't have an eye... blakes 7!!!' suddenly zoe and i started going nuts and we were all talking over each other about the show!! it was really cool because no one we know has heard of the show!!!
it was pretty amazing coincidence i thought.

Down the pub the other night chatting about work and I mentioned something about one of the computers playing up (the computers on my networks are named after B7 characters). The friend I was with asked which one and I told her 'Vila' at which the guy next to me at bar pipes up "Oh is that Vila as in 'I should really introduce him now, he's at his best when he's unconscious.'"
I nearly bounced off my seat, usually people look at me blankly when I mention B7 or summon up some memory of 'some old Sci-FI program'
