I'm about 1/2 way through, and so far have found very few things, far less than was in TLD.<BR/><BR/>Also, the first time I read TF (when it was originally released), I didn't care much for it. I'd been hoping for something more "in tone" with EE, TLR, TLD, and TF was very different from those. This time, without the ...mistaken expectations... I'm finding that I'm really enjoying it!<BR/><BR/>Everett KasereKaserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11720903096599387377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778489216730794604.post-43343686718193802472007-11-16T07:22:00.000-08:002007-11-16T07:22:00.000-08:00Dan:Will work at proofing either or both this week...Dan:<BR/><BR/>Will work at proofing either or both this weekend.

You posted the morning of the 14th -- on the 13th I worked until 10:30 P.M., drove home 60 miles, worked on finishing the formatting of Devlin's Razor and Terminal Freedom and finished a business proposal requesting some millions of dollars for a web startup, all of which took me past 3 A.M.: got up the next morning at 6:15 A.M. to take my children to school and found that Microsoft had blown up my notebook over night, packed my backup hard drives in my briefcase, got on the road at 7 A.M., drove 60 miles across Los Angeles and Orange County rush hour traffic to reach Irvine, spending a total of nearly 3 hours on the road, got to my client's location and uploaded the copies of Devlin's Razor and Terminal Freedom to the proofers, drove over to Starbucks and from my telephone responded to messages and emails, including the response to you, which was a joke and which I typed with the thumb of my right hand while while waiting for a triple non-fat latte ...<BR/><BR/>In the future I'll wait until a keyboard's available. :-)<BR/><BR/>I need to turn comment moderation back off.Daniel Keys Moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12992599044462413412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778489216730794604.post-68199172277185877162007-11-15T15:25:00.000-08:002007-11-15T15:25:00.000-08:00Oh, yeah, and one more point... having checked bac...Oh, yeah, and one more point... having checked back on my original (blathering) comment, I never said 'Travis McGee'.

I also dig that tone is a hard thing to read on the 'net. Having said that, when one leaves a 284 word comment and gets 12 sharp words in response, which in addition to being rather curt are, well, entirely frickin nonsense, and we both know it, well... 'whatever, dude' was the fourth draft answer. The first three drafts were... let us say, crisper.<BR/><BR/>On the Internet, 'smile when you say that, pard' has entirely new volumes of meaning... which is to say, one little sideways emoticon at the end of your first response to me would have worked wonders.<BR/><BR/>Not that any of it matters in any larger scheme of things.

My copy of that "Asimov's" issue is starting to fall apart and it would be nice to have that one in a more durable form.

I contribute to an e-zine called ASTONISHING ADVENTURES, and the editors there are absolutely fanatically resistant to doing anything to create an actual hard copy of the magazine that people could toss in a backpack or briefcase and take with them to read on the bus, or something. They honestly seem to feel that not only is the online .pdf adequate for all purposes, but it's actually SUPERIOR to hard copy.<BR/><BR/>Maybe we'll get there in another couple generations of technology, but right now, I find hard copies much, much more convenient than something that's online, which I need some kind of Internet port to actually read. Plus, I suspect I'm one of those people who will ALWAYS prefer hard copy to e-copy.<BR/><BR/>That's as a reader. As a writer, yeah, I understand the wonderful flexibility and cheapness of the e-format. Nonetheless, I'd far rather walk by a shelf in a BORDERS or a BARNES & NOBLE and see two or three titles by me on it, than I would surf to a website and see same. <BR/><BR/>So, yes, I will be delighted to learn where I can get a hard copy of A.I. WAR, and any collections you put out that also have CONTINUING TIME material in them.<BR/><BR/>Have I mentioned how much I continue to enjoy EMERALD EYES every time I reread it?
