Thanks.

Kind of quaint and silly.

Brown wrote the classic Martians Go Home with the associated equally classic Kelly Freas illustration.

Fredric Brown is one of our greatest science fiction writers. “The Mind Thing”, a novel, is a great read. Thanks for reminding us of his talent.

We seem to be hurtling towards that scenario at breakneck speed, and total abandon.

We may be the last generation of the current civilization to remember what it was like to not be hard wired into Big Brother’s matrix.

Try Murray Leinster’s “A Logic Named Joe” from 1946 that is eerily prescient in its depiction of the internet and its unfortunate consequences.

I liked his “Arena” but Star Trek buggered it up with the Gorn thing.
