The fun of collecting them is the legitimate excuse to watch all the episodes again to collect the quotes and their usage. I've done it before for specific purposes, and it's a lot of fun.

Kind of my logic there :) I've only seen the show twice through (I'm a pretty recent convert to the show). I just finished watching it but I'm already wanting to watch again so the research will be enjoyable. Probably looking at no less than 20 hours to do that, so this could be a bit of a process.

Yay! I inspired someone to do something that'll benefit the world... well... at least the 'verse! :)

Once I figure out how to pronounce it correctly, I forsee "bee-jway" entering my daily life. :) I'm still working on it...

I second the call for a Firefly/Serenity dictionary..something with all the Chinese phrases and such.

I also must agree with "wacky fun"
because really..how can you not support anything labeled "wacky fun" ?
