Title: Tharg and Athur C Clarke - Actually Same Person
Post by: Dounreay on 15 February, 2003, 03:40:57 AM
Just picked up Arthur C and Stephen Baxter's 'The Light of Other Days'.

Page 1, Chapter 1, para 4 and I quote:

'It was the ruin of the International Space Station: never completed, abandoned in 2010 after the crash of an ageing Space Shuttle'.

And then I thought " Who else do I know thats old, bald and gnarly, produces great sci-fi and the odd time predicts the future with scary accuracy".

Bags I Scooby-Doo type un-masking rights.

" I would have got away with it, if it weren't for those darn pesky boarders"

Moby - damn - how did I miss that.

Edits a comic, writes books, makes albums.

Where does he find the time between doing old geezer stuff?
