    I was dissappointed by 2061 (the third book). You could skip it entirely and not miss anything important to the series. 3001 was much better.

    I bet indians live there that we can fly there and take all their land from. Yes a new resource to add to our own. Wonderful. Joy. We'll teach them about big business and why we need their raw resources to stablize our fading economy.

    Flame? of course! Troll, na.

    Funny how we're so interested in other places we forget how mismanaged life here on earth is.
