Re: 3D galaxy prototype
I've always imagined G1-G8 to be adjacent slices of a section of a galaxy - ie sort of stacked on top of one another - hence the hyper drive takes you in an up/down direction rather than the normal sideways movement through witch-space...?

Re: Carn't explain Oolite to the wife
Goodness you are fortunate, one of mine came from the same genetic stream as Yah-Ta-Hey's and learned to open doors at a very early age. Fortunately she never learned to pull down anyone's drawers...Steve wrote:I have a door. Seems to work quite well

Re: Vote now for the best sci-fi film never made
Well, I went for Lensmen in the end, but Ringworld and The Mote in Gods Eye had me in considerable indecision!
I have never even heard of the current winner, Use of Weapons, or its author, but I suspect that relates to my age, and that most of my SF reading was completed 45 years ago!

Ouch...! ...I qualified for SAGA nearly 14 years ago.... :cry: ...but I don't actually qualify as a grandfather! Technically, you could be 32, or even less(!!) and be a grandfather.
