    Your Highest Recommended Sci-Fi Mag and why?

    Yeah, Dask is apparently camping the topic. Don't whip him so hard with the obit. Beside of which, I was thinking that with the Dell Forums considering the magazine topic as a recourse, this forum, which has been rather slow, is apt to liven up, and wasn't Chronicles Andy Porter's magazine...

    Gee, that's old.

    Asimov's or F&SF?

    What, J. Sun, it's their plan to have fantasy material in F&SF? Garcia was replaced by an argumentative lady and hasn't had anything to say since the forums closed. The Dell sites now don't have any moderators...they say if they did, they might re-open. F&SF has stronger stories, Asimov's...

    When's the Next Season?

    The Official and Unofficial Sites of DR WHO don't say when the next season is, on BBC-America. Does anybody here know?

    The New Season

    Well, well, Pendragon finally died and Arthur's on the throne. I knew that would happen sooner or later; he wouldn't be King Arthur until Pendragon was gone. Don't like the way it was the Forces of Evil that got him, but then, that's a more vital and active death than just perishing in the...

    Fine Films, But Was The Casting A-1?

    Been awhile since anybody's been interested in this topic.

    A Turgid Wade

    Those OTHERLAND books are large volumes and rather murky as to contents. I'd say anyone who has managed all of them has had quite a trip.

    Glad to see you like all of us so well, Wilum. I'll tell you what, I remember looking over Arkham House selections and deciding which ones I wanted to purchase, and had I seen Tales of Nyarlathotep on their lists it would have been an immediate purchase. Time has passed, but it still sounds like...

    Will Rev Bem Be Able To Stay On Andromeda?

    Bem stayed on long enough. His moment of repentence was a high point of the series.

    The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

    The discussion's been going on for six years now; perhaps there should be a summary of the top ten choices, as prophesied. When it says "of all time" in the topic title, it means business.

    The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

    The best character has just got to be a hero, or, if we are after something different, a villain, as villains carry the antithesis. A character is an individual rather than a participant.

    The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

    That's the story that raises the question, do people program a computer, or does the computer program itself? I think this situation was originally highlighted in "The Proud Robot" by Lewis Padgett.

    Is Magic Possible?

    I see you are a writer from the fact that you used a book cover from your writing as an avatar, and from subsequently looking at your profile. I might say that from reading your posting, I would pick up your book and read it if it were on the bookstore shelves. That is, I would also purchase...

    Keep with it--Tales of Nyarlathotep seems to be a good one for the coming year.

    Is Magic Possible?

    "Sceptic" is a scientific term, but labels a state of mind, which is magical rather than scientific. A magical response to this is to say that I am skeptical of science. Are its principles always sound, do we not find scientists having to revise their thoughts at intervals, can science achieve...

    Is Magic Possible?

    Seems like you have a pretty good idea for a story there.

    Is Magic Possible?

    Would being a black hole or singularity existing on Earth be a scientific explanation of the disappearing ships in the Bermuda triangle?

    Is Magic Possible?

    Actually, there shouldn't be any ships lost anywhere. Think what it would be like to be on a ship that's lost. Perhaps ship loss is a warfare statistic. The Bermuda triangle seems to cross science and magic. A triangle is scientific, but magic is interested in the triangular concept in the...
