Harlan Ellison sued anybody and everybody. I don't blame Cameron or anyone else for settling with Ellison, just to make him go away.

I generally like Ellison's work but the man was a bit of a nutcase. He was the grumpy old man of science fiction. The slightest resemblance to any of his work meant almost automatic litigation from him.

Want to know how twisted Ellison was? Go find the original draft of "The City on the Edge of Forever", it's WELL worth reading.

That’s why I said Ellison is a major league PIA in his own right.

Doesn’t change the fact Cameron settled, for what ever reason. Puts his “I had a dream” claim in a different light.
