Humpday Mema-age that isn't silly...

rimrunner's Shoppe of Bookses was running a special on the following:

I am: Hal Clement (Harry C. Stubbs) A quiet and underrated master of "hard science" fiction who, among other things, foresaw integrated circuits back in the 1940s.

Which science fiction writer are you?

I know this writer not. I'd go pick up some of his stuff, but reading science fiction this old tends to be painful, not because the writing is neccessarily bad, but due to where technology actually is today.

E.E. "Doc" Smith

The inventor of space opera. His purple space war tales remain well-read generations later.

I'm not familiar with him, either.
