With Virgin Planet, the novel, boxed for a house move, I have to reread "Virgin Planet," the shorter version.
This planet has grass and two suns, Ay and Bee. Other heavenly bodies are Minos, a moon called Ariadne and other moons not visible in the opening scene. What is Minos?
The pressing question is whether a spaceship that has just landed has brought the Men or some other intelligent species, Monsters. Either is possible.
And that is a good place to close for this evening, just in time for some TV news about the US election...
We read future history and live history.

Kaor, Paul!
VIRGIN PLANET is my favorite of all the Psychotechnic series.
And I hope Trump wins. I'm so fed up with the Democrats!
Ad astra! Sean
Sean,
Some of us are so fed up with Trump but this is hardly worth saying!
Paul.
Kaor, Paul!
And the Democrats lost because of their arrogance, woke fanaticism, corruption, stupidity, and incompetence.
Ad astra! Sean
Kaor, Paul!
And it's almost certainly going to be knives out as genuinely centrist Democrats and woke leftists fight each other for control of that party.
Ad astra! Sean
Sean,
One side is arrogant and the other is not? You are expressing one-sided hatred.
Paul.
Is Trump going to use the police and the military against Democrat voters? Is he going to pardon rioters? Is he going to deport millions? Is he going to make it unnecessary for his supporters ever to vote again? Will he end the Ukraine war in 24 hours?
I think that Republicans need to slow down and think this through.
Does he still deny climate change?
A BBC reporter who interviewed a lot of Americans found that they were voting for Trump not because of but in spite of his mad violent rhetoric. That is reassuring.
A firing squad for a political opponent. His critics and opponents are deranged and despicable. Prosecutions in which he was found guilty are the greatest witch-hunt in history. Democrats trying to win an election are identical with Democrats trying to steal the election.
Trump is incredible and, fortunately, unique.
