Found it!




Why? Because it's there.

How odd and fun. I wonder what happened to the cookie molds. Collector's item!

Enjoy.

I've read a few of these books. I've got several by Ray Cummings.

Enjoy.

Going down this list a couple of things stand out.

Titles that I've read but at the time, didn't consider were science fiction - in the conventional sense.

How many science fiction authors who's works I've yet to read.

I look at lists like these and I'm horrified! I don't have enough of a lifetime to read everything!!!

With new technology (the iPad, e-ink readers), I've gone from not having enough books to read (can only check so many out of the library - and I read fast!) - to having such a huge selection to choose from that I have too much to read.

My - but I am so thrilled to have this problem.

A fabulous problem. I know so many people who consider reading ( or the time expended to read ) a luxury. I'm sad for them.

I agree, there are too many people who never experience the joy of reading for pleasure. To them, reading is a chore to be undertaken only when unavoidable.

On march 31st, 1951, the first commercial computer, Univac 1,was delivered to the US census bureau.

I love to read, so can't imagine losing that pleasure. But I'm not a sporty or outdoorsy person, and I'm sure there are people who couldn't imagine their lives without sports or outdoors pursuits, either. I figure we all love different things and there's no need to feel sorry for people who like something else.
