I try to yearly. Looking like the best option more and more.

Robert Heinlein is a great author and a true patriot as well! That book was written so long ago but still rings truer every year, I feel.

I've read everything he wrote, multiple times. He loses me with the later books and the incest stuff, but he was an old man by then. But his mid-career stuff is some of the best. His characters get really chatty at times, but he was often dealing with complex concepts.

He was a staunch Libertarian, but not the kind that's running loose these days. They don't make men like him anymore, sadly, but I gleaned a lot from his work as a teenager. My dad...well...he tried. I had to fill in a lot of blanks in life on my own, and RAH gave me a lot of things to think about. And I disagreed with a lot, too - but you're allowed to do that, at least for now. I expect that if the globalists win, his books will be burned like most of the Sci Fi greats.

I look at the "bestseller" lists for Sci Fi these days, and it's all women. I tried a couple. They're dreck. Stick to the classics, pedes.

No argument here.
