I'm loving this show. I've read many of Asimov's books and knew very little about him besides that he was a genius.

Well, I'm afraid to say I haven't learned anything about Asimov tonight except that he could think and type fast.  I think I'll be signing off.  Braaps all.

Was Robert the Doll and his owner there too?

I might try The Diamond Age on your recommendation (if that's what this is).  I tried reading a couple of Neal Stephenson's books (because I absolutely loved Snow Crash) but just couldn't get into them -- couldn't even plow through.  I'll check out The Diamond Age.

It is flawed (especially the later parts) ... but still quite an interesting vision of a future nanotech / steampunk society.

I have been to the Hemingway house in Key West more times than i can remember, i also am close friends with the woman that takes care of the Hemingway 6 toed cats, its cool but a tourist trap.

Especially since Hemingway was a nut. It's amazing how mystiques develop.

I hope not, was planning on booking some shows about it.

Speaking of which, how many of you have read Ready Player One?

RCH interviewing William Gibson would be fascinating.

He may have been a nut but when i was young i read A Farewell to Arms and it got me to read more books, so i thank him for that.

RCH's ideas about the finances of higher education are just as scrambled as his ideas on how government is run.
