I am a Science Fiction junkie. So is my wife. For me, it started when I first read 'Starship Troopers' ( I was 10), written by the greatest author of the genre, Robert A. Heinlein. Heinlein would have been 100 on 7 July, and some folks are taking this time to recognize his contributions. I think he would have appreciated this.
UPDATE: For those of you unfamiliar with Heinlein, and why he matters to more than just day-dreaming teenage boys, read this excellent piece by Brian Doherty over at reasononline.
