Visit? I'd like to move.... blame Heinlein. Have Space Suit, Will Travel; The Man who Sold the Moon; The Menace from Earth; It's Great to be Back... all sold me on the Moon before I was 12.

By the time I was 12 I had read a lot of the old science fiction stuff too. My uncle worked for a book store, and he paid my babysitting fees in paperbacks without the front covers on them. A lot of Doc Savage and really great old SF like STurgeon, PK Dick, and Frederick Pohl etc. I couldn't get enough of it.
