Filling the creek crossing. Librivox. The importance of darkness.

It was really hot today, so rather than schlep the chainsaw up to the hackberry, I decided to fill in the creek crossing by the house

Y'know, a lot of the stuff published in early science fiction magazines were pretty schlocky stuff. If you don't believe me, there's a lot of it stored on the Gutenberg Project.

Oh yeah, I know that. I assumed (wrongly), that stuff on Librivox would be weeded out for that sort of thing. After all, you have to find volunteers to read it. But I suppose some people do like schlock.

I suspect it's the nostalgia factor.....

Laughs, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised by it in a world where people get all misty eyed over "Strawberry Shortcake", but when I am nostalgic for Sci-fi it's Heinlein and Norton, Niven and Simak.
