Re:The greatest enemy of SciFi today... (Score 1)

Don't be silly. Why read science fiction at all if what you really care about is rigid definitions and excluding anything you don't happen to already like? The whole point is to expand your mind, otherwise you might just as well be reading boring "realistic" fiction about middle-aged middle-class midlife crises. I think the two genres, sf and fantasy, lie next to each other on a spectrum, and there's a lot of overlap. Anyway, there are plenty of us out there who like BOTH ... and we don't waste a lot of time whining about how the book club actually offered us MORE than we thought we were looking for!
