  1. The title by MadChicken · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I realize it's asking a lot, but if people would either READ the ARTICLE or scroll way way to the bottom, they'd see this:

    About this story, Cory says, "Last spring, in the wake of Ray Bradbury pitching a tantrum over Michael Moore appropriating the title of 'Fahrenheit 451' to make Fahrenheit 9/11, I conceived of a plan to write a series of stories with the same titles as famous sf shorts, which would pick apart the toalitarian [sic] assumptions underpinning some of sf's classic narratives."

    Yes, the title is on purpose. Of course if people did that, there would be no discussions here, would there?
