The following is an interview with Imzadi, the owner of the Logical Choice forum.

Q: What made you start the Logical Choice forum?
I remember back in my X-Files days, finding the Haven forum and realizing that it was a place that I could go and really just have fun and discuss aspects of the show and things that I loved, and that was a really comforting thought to me. After Enterprise started, and we all met in the CAVe, I thought that it might be nice to have something like the Haven to go to where we could all post at a forum, instead of filling our mailboxes with emails. I know that finding the Haven back in the late 90's and finding other people like me that were obsessed with X-Files really made me feel welcome, and not alone. I figured that perhaps it might be the same for others just joining the ENT/A/TP fandom.

Q: How long has the forum been running?
Wow...I created the board on July, 23 2003, so that's almost 4 years now. *sniff* My baby's growing up so fast.

Q: Why invisionboard?
I visited another board that was introduced to me by members of TrekBBS, KellyzKorner. It was a place where writers could get together and just gab, and also talk about Trek (Voyager in particular) and they used invisionboard. I knew it was free. Seeing as how I'm a poor college kid, free is always the way to be.

Q: How many members to-date?
As of right now, 433 I believe. Quite a few more than the 10 or so of us that came over from the CAVe.

Q: Did you envision it would be the primary place to discuss A/T'P?
I didn't actually. I thought the CAVe would still be the main place. I just liked the convenience of a message board over email groups, but never in my dreams did I imagine that TLC would eventually be the place to go for A/T'P discussion. In a sense, it's almost a haven of sorts in it's own rights. I think that's a wonderful thing. I still miss the old days of the CAVe though...perhaps because ENT was still on, lol.

Q: Are you surprised we still get new members?
Yes, it's always interesting to find new members joining everyday. Of course, as long as Enterprise is shown on television in repeats, there will be newly discovered fans of the show. I think that perhaps the show got too much flack while it was on, because everyone tried to compare it to something else, but it was unique and different; out on it's own. Now that the "tension" over the show has died down, so to speak, perhaps now people can just sit back and relax and enjoy the wonderful stories and arcs that it brought to us.

Q: Have you run other discussion forums before? If so, which ones?
No, I haven't actually. I participated, but never actually ran any of them. I was in several X-Files groups, Stargate groups and Firefly groups, but it wasn't until TLC that I actually ran anything. It was quite scarey starting off...

Q: Anything you want to add about history or the future of this board?
It's been a lot of fun, and we've had a lot of interesting and meaningful discussion. We've all developed friendships, and that's really what this is all about. It's not about if the show was gold medal material, or if A/T'P really was the best, it's about people joining together and just letting go of reality for a bit, relaxing and enjoying each others conversations. It's really all about comraderie....

...and a little bit about the a/tp lurve...
