My copy: 9780345358790 Well, the world of "2001" is back with it's third installment, which I hadn't heard of until I watched an awesome series I downloaded called "Prophets of Science Fiction" and got to learn more about Arthur C.

I think this book is an interesting find. I found it a few years ago when I was gathering research materials on Houston in the 20th century. There really aren't many books about the Houston area, fiction OR nonfiction, and I was hoping to write something of either someday.
I've spent the past week trying to learn (or re-learn) too many varying things. A week ago it was Jiu Jitsu, which was interesting and I'll definitely do again...when my muscles stop hurting in places I don't remember having.
