The section features a cartoon drawing of Spock and a list that reads: You are receiving SPOCKANALIA because: You contributed; You helped; You encouraged; You are in Spock Shock; You paid cash; You are mentioned; We thought you might be interested; We would like to exchange; You deserve one after listening to us talk about it all these months; We admire you; You are Isaac Asimov; You are totally illogical; You might contribute if we’re insane enough to try this again; You tell us. end of description.] -- source link
