Subject: [spacesettlers] Ray Bradbury
Greatly saddened this morning at news that Ray has left us.
Even in news report they mentioned how he wanted to be
remembered for more than a Sci-Fi writer, can I repeat excerpt
from his introductory page to Heppenheimer's Colonies In Space?
Colonies In Space? The question really shouldn't be raised.
For me anyway, it is self answering. Yes, of course. Why not?
Let's move. Let's go there. Let's do the job.
Mr. Heppenheimer is keeper of the key, opener of the gate,
tender of the gardens we will toss into space and inhabit with
proper proportions of sorrow and joy. He offers you citizenship in
the Universe. How can you refuse?
