As an aside;

I do not grok this tanstaafl...

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.

[zeebo]

Yup, that was right in the beginning of the book.
I loved it when they pummeled Cheyenne Mtn to dust

Brilliant book.  I've read alot of sci-fi but nothing like that before.  I swear if you watch the politics of 2016 you will see tactics from that book. 

[Barfly]

On a larger scale that would make a sweet goldfish bowl

[zeebo]

This is the proper braaptini glass.  FYI I'm still working on the perfect recipe.

True. There are those caveats.

It's also the perfect game-plan for staging a revolution.

[SaucyRossy]

I was wondering if that was just me, it must be getting a lot of hits.

Yah, he did

Haha, yeah I was like "Wait this is crazy, but it would probably work!"  The whole thing about basically inventing the computer-based heroic revolutionary persona was brilliant.  Can't believe that book was written almost fifty years ago.

[zeebo]

I have the 3D Bluray of that movie.

It's actually kind of a cool movie.  Don't know why it got dissed so bad.  But then again I love Flash Gordon and Starship Troopers.   :

Loved that movie. Loved the novels. The first three and The Mastermind of Mars and A Fighting Man of Mars.

[(Sandman) Logan-5]

Ha ha ha
That's part of the reason I like Hoagy's show so much 

[zeebo]

Oh oh .. don't say "librarian" to Hoagie.

[zeebo]

Alright, which one of you looked at Alan's website?

Haha, dude, your dry wit is killing me tonite. 

[(Sandman) Logan-5]

I used to think Vista was evil. WinBlows 10 is the Devil incarnate.
