Hopefully I am doing this correctly. I am kinda confused on this whole blog thing and have had 0 experience with blogs.
My Sci-Fi experience is somewhat limited. My parents read the genre almost exclusively, and I used to read it some, but now I'm mostly involved with movies. I've seen all the star war's movies, Watchmen, only the new Star Trek movie, and such.
My definition of Science Fiction is a genre in which the plot, setting, or characters use, obtain, or are surrounded by technology that is beyond what is possible at the time of the books writing.
This is so to not exclude older books from the genre (such as Jules Vernes' books or others like 1984 and such)

I like your definition, Ken, but it does seem to privilege books, as opposed to, say, movies. Could we reword it to include all formats?
