Hi Keith



 KR> yes, i remember the space age bookshop, but that was back in the 70s

 KR> when i was forced to spend a significant portion of my life down there.



I'm told that people actually live there of their own free will. Amazing.



 KR> i didnt really get much of a chance to look around this time, i went at

 KR> an hour's notice. it's a bit of a trip isn't it from garbutt to

 KR> melbourne to get some sf books?



Where's Garbutt? I live in Rasmussen. Furlongs away.



I've been in Melbourne 3 times. Twice for training camps on uP

typesetting machines, once for a good friend's wedding. I escaped

with a decent mass of sf paperbacks each time.



 RM> I don't know Sydney at all. Is there a similar place?



 KR> undoubtably there is, but i dont know it. perhaps one of the others can

 KR> enlighten you.



 OK, you lot who think you live in the capital, cough up! Or will

you admit that Melbourne is the cultural centre?



Cheers

do you write these things, or have you found a quote library that

matches your point of view?
