Welcome science fiction & fantasy fans!

As a science fiction/fantasy writer myself, I enjoy taking voyages into the unknown. Looking at the universe as it isn't often helps us put the real world into perspective. It's also fun to take an occasional vacation from the often-harsh reality around us. Unlike the theists, the religionists, the god-groupies who feel compelled to live in fantasy realms, we visit them and then come back home--and then go voyaging again.

I hope you'll all feel free to congregate here and compare your experiences in other worlds and times.

Comment by Mike Hein on October 30, 2009 at 7:22am: @Eric: Well, I suppose her longevity is it for her...it does seem she got shorted a bit.

Comment by Mike Hein on October 30, 2009 at 7:20am: The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan/Brandon Sanderson is just sitting here on my desk waiting to be read. Damn work is keeping me from it.

Comment by Janine on October 29, 2009 at 10:47pm: regarding Warehouse 13: Your correct, Claudia did add a new dimension to the show. it needed "something" and she was it!! I love the history meets science meets the unknown. One thing is true: for every 1 thing we know to be fact, there are 100s maybe 1000s of things we don't understand.

Comment by Eric Harris on October 29, 2009 at 7:16pm: I went and wathched the web episodes of Sanctuary the other day. (in order) I changed my mind. It's cool. I like the vampire premise. But I could figure out what power Magnus suposed to have besikdes not ageing. What makes HER so special?

Comment by Stephen Goldin on October 28, 2009 at 6:37pm: W13 is reasonably diverting, The 2 main "stars" are pretty lame, but Saul Rubinek and CCH Pounder are always fun to watch. And the humor really picked up when Claudia entered the picture. And they at least spark some interest in American history.

Comment by Eric Harris on October 28, 2009 at 6:14pm: I don't own a tellevion so I don't get to see recent episodes. Just watch onlineepisodes. But I have seen a few of Sanctuary and Warehouse 13. I like W13 because it is mildly educational. (myths in artifacts- memerobilia stuff) And the charactors are interesting. The few episodes I saw of Sanctuary were not in order so that could be why I wasn't feelin it. At the begining it was cool, but I watched one the other day and thought it was a bit lame. I like Eureka. That's a fun one to watch. Good science but not too serious. Now that new SG-U, I don't think that will last the entire season unless they spice it up, kill off their smart guy, get ride of the weak commander, chill on the relationship/sex crap... Shit rewrite the whole thing! They took the adventure/science/antagoni out and messed up the whole franchise!

Comment by Mike Hein on October 27, 2009 at 10:56am: Haven't seen that one. I've been watching Sanctuary and enjoying that one enough.

Comment by Janine on October 27, 2009 at 10:55am: Has anyone checked out "Warehouse 13" on Syfy. it's a fun show!!

Comment by Mike Hein on October 27, 2009 at 6:41am: Well, the pre-order for (the first book of) the last (three) Wheel of Time novel has shipped. Should have it tomorrow.
