The Jerry and Larry Show

Science fiction author's Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle are featured in this article that recently appeared in The Washington Post. Fans of The Mote in God's Eye might want to note that they are correcting the book, one copy at a time. Fans of Robert A. Heinlein might want to look to their book Footfall for an appearance by that author as a character in the book!

In the Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction Department, the Department of Homeland Security is tapping some science fiction authors for ideas. In that scene where that Robert A. Heinlein appears in Footfall, that is exactly what is happening. What a hoot!
