I see a correlation here! :D        AA>> --        AA>> ../|ug               JD> Definitely a correlation ;-)        JD> Check out David Weber as well. The Honor Harrington        JD> series. Think Hornblower, but female ? and in space ?              He's another Baen distro - which means sucky Simon & Schuster.               :(              But, I see that some other titles of his are Tor pub. That's a        better one for me - although Tor is only available from a lone        distibutor located in British Columbia.              I really enjoyed Ringworld (Larry Niven). There was a half        decent AI drone-like cat-n-mouse hunt/fighting scene which was        pretty good.              --        ../|ug       --- OpenXP 5.0.50        * Origin: Mobile?
