  3. Really enjoying the stories by Simak. Hope I can find more stories or maybe novels.

    1. There's lots of Simak on Amazon. Some of it out of print, some not. And several completely free Kindle books by Simak. You probably know that you can download Kindle for PC -- including a special accessible version -- without charge.

      The Simak I particularly remember is City. This is a collection set within the frame of a scholar trying to convince his fellow Dogs that these tales of humans are not mere fables but are records of a species that once actually existed in at least one of the cobbly worlds.

    2. No, I didn't know you could download an accessible version of Kindle for PC. Thanks, Bill.

  5. Alan, thanks for the Earth core article link. Fascinating.

    Oh, it is so easy to get distracted, much easier than staying on task.

  6. My task is whatever I'm on, and on schedule is when I get there...

    Simak for free on Kindle--will have to check it out.
