About a race that could not practice birth control so their civilization kept ending in extreme overpopulation. I forget how the problem was solved. I was a teenager when I read the book, and I remember so little about it. What you described evoked memories of the alien race in that book. I came across a copy of the book a couple of years ago at a yard sale. I purchased it to read again, and I started to do that last winter. For some reason I never got beyond the first few pages. (I've got too many books going at the same time right now.) All of this has me reminsicing about favorite books, though. The "High Crusade" by Poul Anderson was a lighthearted read, and Le Guin's "The Left Hand of Darkness" was a thought-provoking work. Then there was "The Forever War"... -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

I didn't like the Dorothy charcter and the monkeys scared me when my mom took me to see it. "Em" seems so CSS, Em. But it works for me. Ursula Le Guin did write the Earth Sea Trilogy, too, which I enjoyed. Those books were more in the Fantasy or Heroic Fantasy genre. I thought her "Left Hand" more masterly. To be honest, I haven't read "The Darkness Box." I'll add that to my list (the interminable list). I read a lot of Asimov when I was in my teens, including "I Robot," and I would have to reread the books to discuss them adequately. I do remember that Asimov was markedly proud of his three laws of robotics. And I'd read "Stranger in a Strange Land," too. I read a lot of Heinlein back then (including "The Rolling Stones," the possible genesis for Gerrold's "The Trouble with Tribbles"). (In fact one of my research papers in college used references from Heinlein's testimony before Congress concerning NASA spinoff technology.) The one heralded author that I never really explored much as I probably should have was Arthur C. Clarke. I had read a couple of his books, I know. I don't remember the titles, though. Bradbury was an intriguing author, also, I'd have to agree. I don't think he ever forgave Michael Moore for 'borrowing' the title from his "Fahrenheit 451." -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

Over priced, 40 mile range and not a hybrid. Need to run the motor 3 hours to recharge and does not motivate the car. $40k for an in town car. Cheaper to hire a taxi. Some idiot is pressing this debacle. Well, I'd rather have a Prius. But I'm fine for now. -- Nom=de=Plume A Prius uses more natural resources over it's lifespan than a lot of econoboxes, but at least it goes more than 40 miles at a time. If they made the volt a hybrid, and especially if they stuffed in a small diesel, would be a lot better vehicle. A log more useable also. |

"Dune" was a pseudo-intellectual's dream book. Thematically, it was a freakin' mess, but because it was so bad, everybody thought it was good. And of course it spawned a whole series of pre/post quels if you will all written by his relatives trying to keep the franchise alive. Hebert is L. Ron Hubbard, only nobody spawned a religion off of "Dune". Oh wait - yes they did. The Church of Global Warming, Saint Al Gore Liturgy. |
