Well, I don't know anything at all about him, Choobak.
But I learned from your links that he is the same age as me (1961) and has done much more impressive things with his life than I have done with mine.. [Big Grin]

Did you ever read Egan's short story "The Extra"?

Posted by Choobak (Member # 7083) on :

I don't know this short. I read only novels by him and since, i cannot move and i stay sit in my chair. [Smile]

Really, this Australian SF autor have very intersting views of futurs. In Distress, his ideas of new religions, and everybody have a "Pocket PC" connect to networks are so "clear-sighted" !

Have you seen his CV ? He is not the last of dumb !
