Technicon 2005
Apr. 8th, 2005 03:18 pmI've always liked Niven's Laws. I don't slavishly agree with them, but they are an excellent source of topics to ponder.
This leads to the fact that I've just deleted a lengthy rant about SF/fantasy fans who, despite entreaties from their favorite authors that they start thinking for themselves, are still want to be told what to think and what to believe. The only thing we humans got that the rest of the animal kindgom didn't is a more complex brain. It's way past time that we as a race consider trying out some of its higher gears, just to see what happens, you know?
( Ok, wow, Technicon report, cool. )
