littlemanpoet,

Yea i LOVE Lewis stuff too. What was it? They decided Lewis was to write a story about space travel and JRRT was to write about time travel (Lost Road?)?...

I think the best SF out there is the classic stuff (Asimov, et el). Pre - techno babble hehe era you could call it. Still technical and ambitious, yet not bogged down by the "isms" of the technical jargons of the day. "Timeless" you could call it.....
