I grew up reading (and greatly enjoying) the speculative fiction of Bova, Asimov, Heinlein, Bradbury, et al. It is truly amazing to see how many ideas that these writers invented, that have been invented as products later on by others.

Their fiction has truly carried the torch of technology, and led the way in so many cases. Where will it all end? Who knows, who knows...
