Angua: “If you want boys to notice you, get into Sci Fi PDQ, is my advice to you young things. I came by my interests honestly, incidentally - I am a voracious reader and lived with a geek for the better part of a decade.”
Probably accurate, except I still cringe when I hear people say "Sci-Fi" instead of SF. (I had a science fiction writer from my home town lecture me on it, and ever since...) I've only read three series of science fiction: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (all five of the trilogy, the first four twice, and the first book three times); Arthur C. Clarke's 2001 series; and Isaac Asimov's Foundation series (just finishing up the third, but there is a prequel and many more sequels; and hey, no dissing me for not having read the classics yet: at least I'm reading them now before turning headlong into contemporary stuff), so a science fiction nut I am not. But quoting Douglas Adams is one of the quickest ways to my (atrophied) heart.
