       @futurebird There's Fantastic Voyage, but it was a movie first, then made into a novel by Isaac Asimov

       @futurebird This year I've been culling my science fiction paperback collection by re-reading ones I've had for decades and giving them away for someone else to read before they fall apart. The main impact these have had on me is nostalgia!Some I couldn't part with, though; for example:With Friends Like These.... Who Needs Enemies - Alan Dean FosterEnder's Game - Orson Scott CardNeedle - Hal Clement#books #sciencefiction

       @projectgus I operated a lab of IBM DOS computers in a school library. To keep little fingers away, the server was on the carpet under a table.  Each day about 120 children traipsed in to use the computers.  One day the server shut down, so I called the technician.  He set the server on some newspaper, removed the side panel, took a large spatula from his bag and scraped wads of carpet fluff from the panel.  The server booted up fine.  After that I did it myself every few months.#computers

       @fstateaudio @strypey @autistics Doesn't matter how early I start planning; at 6:29 my keys, shoes, phone or other essential item will be missing in action, even if I had them all ten minutes earlier.
