That's not to say they didn't write great science-fiction, but I don't regard great science fiction as being neccessarily the same thing as geeky.<BR/>And is there anything geekier than Monty Python? :)<BR/>That's it, I'm gonna make up my own list of Great Geeky Things. Novels is just too limiting.ToxicPurityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15885395774485273431noreply@blogger.com
