- Rick Klaw’s Kleffel’s Agony Column podcasts a panel discussion with Kage Baker and Eliot Fintushel moderated by Terry Bisson.
- New/Updated at Gutenberg: “The Red Room” by H. G. Wells
- SciFi Fan Letter blog lists a Time Travel Novels Reading List. I might add John Varley’s Millennium, To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis and The Plot to Save Socrates by Paul Levinson.
- Abe Books lists The Scariest Characters in Literature.
- Watch the Death Star blow up the way it was meant to be seen…in crappy 1970′s vector-graphics like the rebel pilots saw it in the Star Wars debriefing scene.
- Steven Gould tells us to amble over to this Worth1000 Zombie Photoshopping contest.
- Looking to score with that hot, unattainable green chick? Maybe you need Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women… [via Gravity Lens]

Ummm…the first item leads to the “Socrates” review instead of the panel discussion. Very confused, I am…
:O
This was a test to see if your were derelict in your proofreading duties. You passed the test.
This time.
Link fixed (H)
Not only that, Fred, but he went back in time and fixed the link. I expect your comment to vanish in a puff of causality soon.
What, me erase any evidence of my errors? If I could bring myself to do that, there would be no need for this. :^)
That’s Rick Kleffel, not Rick Klaw, at Agony Column.
Sigh…one of these days I’ll be able to post links without any errors. This is why I never got that job at CNN.
For the record, though, I should note that confusing Rick Kleffel with author/columnist Rick Klaw is one of the easier mistakes I’ve made. I also confuse Al Pacino with Dustin Hoffman, Bill Pullman with Dirk Benedict, and Larry Niven with John Varley.
Oh, and Fred, you’re fired.
“Oh, and Fred, you’re fired.”
Nah, just bringing in a crew of nit-pickers. Come on, outsourcing is all the rage in Corporate America, I’m just doing the same as I closely monitor my vast web empire.
And finish books 69-75 for the year to date.
