Star Trek was cancelled in 1969 but my 23 year old roommate is a trekkie with many trekkie friends. And there always are Star Trek costumes in the costume shops for Halloween.
I personally know a guy who makes a living selling lightsabre swords on Ebay.
I am not a fan myself, but I doubt if it will fade from the collective memory in the next 10years.
And so what if it does, history in moderate doses rarely offends an intelligent person.
