John probably wrote that one himself. He had a way of making people think in his editorials. Even though he kind of bounced from belief to belief in his personal life, his question everything editorial stance and supposedly outrageous views on issues made the Magazine Interesting.

Aside from that I liked Space Operas, man against the Universe as opposed to those socialist Galaxy types, LOL.

I pretty much stopped reading SF back in the Seventies, about the time it got all politically correct. I don't mind dystopias, but I won't be preached at.

Used to read SF aloud to the missus, back before the kids were big enough to join in. Larry Niven, Isaac Asimov, John Wyndham, Alfred Bester, all those classics.

Nowadays she likes the Retief stories, which are political satire. My screen name comes from one of those.
