[QUOTE="dragoner, post: 8522542, member: 6943731"] She and her husband were head of the Science Fiction Writers Association, that whole organization has stumbled from one disaster to another. Not long ago here I tried to clue people in about the writer of Altered Carbon, which if one reads the books and follows the fandom, knows he is a piece of work. Not that he really hid it in his books, people really didn't like hearing it though. Whedon was really post my time, I saw the movie Buffy, except I really did not like High School, being a weird math nerd with a funny accent to going to punk rocker. My wife liked Firefly somewhat, though I'm not that big a fan of westerns, living out west, one saw that the Hollywood version was totally made up. I mean Cormac McCarthy does a better version, though I doubt we'll be seeing [I]Blood Meridian[/I] as a sci-fi adaptation anytime soon you know uh ... then again (begins typing notes). “The truth about the world, he said, is that anything is possible. Had you not seen it all from birth and thereby bled it of its strangeness it would appear to you for what it is, a hat trick in a medicine show, a fevered dream, a trance bepopulate with chimeras having neither analogue nor precedent, an itinerant carnival, a migratory tentshow whose ultimate destination after many a pitch in many a mudded field is unspeakable and calamitous beyond reckoning. The universe is no narrow thing and the order within it is not constrained by any latitude in its conception to repeat what exists in one part in any other part. Even in this world more things exist without our knowledge than with it and the order in creation which you see is that which you have put there, like a string in a maze, so that you shall not lose your way. For existence has its own order and that no man's mind can compass, that mind itself being but a fact among others.” - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian [/QUOTE]
