> Yes, Zelazny's one who's earned a permanent, prominent place on my shelves, next to Heinlein and Tolkien and others.

Heinlein's great :) My favorite thing I've read by him so far is "Puppet Masters". Haven't read Zelazny yet. Some others prominent on my shelves would be Verne, Wells, Edgar Rice Burroughs, H.P. Lovecraft, and Robert E. Howard, among the authors I've read so far. For the past 10 years or so I've been trying to work through all the major sf/fantasy authors and I've gotten up to about Asimov and Heinlein so far on the sf side. My intro to Heinlein was a 3-story collection with "Puppet Masters", "Double Star", and "The Door into Summer", all of which I enjoyed. The other stuff of his I'm familiar with are "Stranger in a Strange Land" and "Starship Troopers". I've been meaning to read some more when I get a chance--any recommendations?

Seems kinda quiet here. Just cleared up all the calls that came in at shift change. I hope stuff will remain slow until a new shift starts at 6AM, when there will be another epidemic of forgotten passwords.

I swear, some people are so lazy or stupid they can't remember their passwords. All they need to remember is the phone number to the help desk. And we don't help that situation when we give away all those mouse pads with our phone number on it.
