Sunday, March 1: Sword and Laser

Reading science-fiction books is not generally thought of as a "social activity" on par with, say paint-balling or watching NASCAR. This could be due at least in part to the cruel, negative social stereotypes surrounding sci-fi, driving its readers into the literary closet. Everyone could be reading science fiction, and

One of the fabulous things about the Pacific Northwest is that no matter how long you've been here, I can probably come up with a place you've never been. I don't mean some obscure little town, although those are fun. I mean a legit place most people have heard of,
