You know, I never read as much of his stuff as I wanted to, but I do remember a short story call Harrison Buregeron. I really liked that story. Maybe I should check some more of his stuff out.

Harrison Bergeron was one of his stories?

Wow. I read that he died, and it made me kind of sad. He was one of the great writers- not Stephen King, who writes lots of crappy books, but someone who wrote great stories.

I need to go read Slaughterhouse-Five.

Is it Karma that I confused Jester in the other thread?

Me an Jester have developed a MAC policy. Mutually Assured Confusion. . .

MAC is SOP for USA and we will employ it ASAP using SOTA technology in a proactive progressive manner to shift the paradigm and leverage our synergies. . .

Yes, the death trifecta for April Was Kurt Vonnegut, Roscoe Lee Browne, and Don Ho.  

No winning bets.
