Re: RIP Fred

Bloody good stories the Polisotechnic(?) League. There again Mr.Pohl always did write good stories which i started reading in the late 50's early 60's thanks to a thoughtful local librarian in the North-West of England. The trouble with getting old is all the good people fall off the twig when you want them to live forever and, quite selfishly, keep on writing stories for one even though they don't even know you exist. "Nowt sa queer as fowks"

God Bless you Mr.Pohl and thank you for many years of happy reading.

Re: Lazy Fat Americans.

No, it's a good thing that obesity is an international epidemic in the West AND increasingly in the so-called developing countries - the fatter and unhealthier we get the quicker we will die off: Hopefully down to a population of about 10% of what we are now.

Hmm, greed feeds the need to feed as the need to compulsively feed breeds greed. (i,m getting too clever for my own good, sigh).
