It just occurred to me that everybody I know who can say the same thing, and that includes nearly all of my childhood and high school chums ... they all grew up to be Conservatives. They also happened to be a core group in the science clubs, honor roll, and honor society. The simpering Liberals I remember were not much for reading and certainly not of books by these three Titans.

And Clarke, although I liked his older stuff more than his newer material.

In his space odyssey sequels he seemed more interested in pushing his views on sex than writing a good science fiction novel.

Me too.
Rest in peace, Mr. Bradbury.
