 RW> DId you read past the trilogy on the foundation series?

Nope, just the trilogy.
I can order the others to the local library branch right from my home 
computer though.

 WC> I've probably reread Dune about 7 times over the last 40 years.

 RW> Did you read the rest of the series?

Tried to but they really were something of a disappointment to me
after Dune.

 WC> Also kinda liked the Cities is Space series with the spin dizzy

 RW> YEp, Blish iirc.  I liked that one too.

Yeah that's it James Blish.
