    Robert         Reid
    “Elbeth and Angus embraced and stepped back to exchange the rings. As the two lovers grasped each other’s right hands the rings shone with white intensity, dimmed and then reappeared on each of their left hands.

    “Why do you keep reading a book? Usually to find out what happens. Why do you give up and stop reading it? There may be lots of reasons. But often the answer is you don't care what happens. So what makes the difference between caring and not caring? The author's cruelty. And the reader's sympathy...it takes a mean author to write a good story.”
    Gail Carson Levine

I am, in short, a rationalist and believe only that which reason tells me is so.”
    Isaac Asimov, I. Asimov: A Memoir
