I know a good place to get some ideas...

Mary Lynn Johnson, a multitalented artist in this vicinity, put
together an SF fannish cookbook a couple of years ago called
*Adventures in Thyme and Spice*. Fans and pros contributed recipes,
and the pages are graced with black-and-white illustrations by many
artists. It's comb-bound in 8.5 x 11-inch format.

Cost is US$15.00 (postage and handling included if you're in the US).
She says she'll send it to Australia for US$17.00. It might not arrive
in time for your party, though!  All profits from the book go to
charity.

One of my favorites from the book is Jupiter Jello.  (I can't remember
who came up with this, but it might have been Bob Trembley of Detroit
fandom.) It's not much work, but you have to make it on a day when
you're home for a long stretch of many hours.  Get various flavors of
Jello and a big, hemispherical bowl. Mix up a little, oh, orange
Jello-- just enough to make a centimeter or so at the bottom of the
bowl.  Allow it to set in the fridge until firm.  Then mix up a larger
amount of lemon Jello, another centimeter's worth (the bowl is
widening).  Let it set.  Repeat until you're near the top of the bowl.  

Scoop out a little bit of Jello at the edge of the bowl using a
spoon.  Mix up a tiny amount of strawberry Jello and pour it into the
cavity.  That's your Great Red Spot.  Finish up with one or two more
layers of orange, lemon, or lime.  Flip the whole assembly onto a
plate covered with lettuce.  Now you have a hemisphere of Jupiter,
complete with Red Spot and latitudinal weather bands.

Maybe I shoulda cross-posted this to sci.astro...

I missed the start of this thread, but I'll add my 2 pu's worth

There is some linguistic content in Mary Gentle's _Golden Witchbreed_,
where the structure of the language holds a clue that they all missed
about the nature of the aliens.  Only a very minor part of the book,
but I was glad it was there.  Good book, but I *loathed* the sequel.

Also Anne McCaffrey makes some erronious linguistic comments in
_Decision At Doona_ - making assumptions that the structure of
the language implies the age of the civilization, which I found
very irritating.

			ATTENTION!!! - OLD SCIENCE FICTION BOOK QUERY
			---------------------------------------------

Hi folks,

I'm looking for a rather rare science fiction book that was written in the
early 1950s by a woman author by the name of Judith Merrill who is/was quite
a talented science fiction writer.

The book is a post-holocaust novel, which paints a rather grim depiction of
the cruelities and hardships of life after the bomb has fallen.

The book is called:


	"Shadow of the Hearth"

What I would like to know is:


	1. Is this book in print in the U.S? Last time I looked it wasn't. It
	   unfortunately isn't in print in Australia.

	2. Where would be the best place to find/obtain this book? Two years
	   ago my parents were in the U.S, and visted a rather large and
	   dingy S.F store called "Forbidden Planet" which I think sells
	   old second-hand books as well as new S.F/Fantasy books.


Also, I wouldn't mind some suggestions for other bomb holocaust novels. Another
good bomb holocaust novel that springs to mind is David Morrow's S.F novel
entitled "This is the Way the World Ends". Another one that creeps to mind
is a teenage/adult novel by Robert Cormier, I, think, called "Z for Zaccharia"
which was quite suspenseful and entertaining, though it has been nearly ten
years since I last read it.


Any suggestions would be more than welcome. Thank you

I read this story years and years ago and enjoyed it then, and it must
be really juvenile, but what the hey, maybe i'll like it again.

PLOT: Young Kid on mars who lives in the ruins of the previous martian
civilization.  Somehow gets into something and ends up in a spaceship.
The ship is round, has guns (??) at the four corners, and is pretty
neat.  Anyway, he ends up getting chased by these long black ships,
who finally catch up with him.  He thinks he is going to get blown
away, but instead they capture him and take him in.  He then finds out
that they are the original martians, and that they (the entire
population) had merely left on a voyage and were now coming back to
their homes.  I forget how it ends...

Can anyone help?  Thanks!

This is from memory, but it seems to me HAL was born in
Urbana, Illinois, in, I think 1992.

Don't forget that HAL comes from "Heuristic Algorithmic"!

Hmm... sounds *very* much like *Secret of the Martian Moons*, by
Donald A. Wollheim, one of the grand series of juvenile novels
published by Winston in the Fifties.  It's not a short story, though. 
And it's pretty hard to find!

I have seen it fairly recently here in Canada.  Am I correct in assuming that
there are only 8 books in this series?  Also, has anyone else out there been
able to finish all 8?  I managed it, but know two other people whom I would
consider to be profuse readers (and have heard of a third) who could not
finish the series (one stopped around book 5, and the other around 6).  I
haven't talked to anyone else who has read any of the books.

I did find them a little hard to read, due to the way the plot bounced all
over the place.  I haven't read any James Joyce, but I hear that this is
sort of the way he wrote as well.  Any comments?

The wherry was a large bird. (Or maybe a bird-like lizard from the
dragon / firelizard / watchwher family -- I could never quite tell.) 

So I always figured wherry looked and tasted like turkey.

Well, that's supposed to be a bad imitation of veal. So you'd want a

french-vanilla ice cream and hot buttered caramel in a crispy dough

	Yeah, I have to agree.  The bad guys seem to be becomming much more
popular than the good guys.  One good example would have to be the character
Demise in the Wild Cards series.  It could be because he was a lot more
developed than some of the other characters though.  A great example of this
would also have to be Doctor Doom (I know this is SF and not comics, but it
is a good example).  Dr Doom just has a certain character appeal.

	All of this probably stems from all the old pulp novel messages of
it being far easier to be evil than good.  In general, what is easy tends
to be far more appealing that what is hard.  I mean Darth Vader can blow
up a whole planet, and the reason is because he wanted to, and we can accept
that.  On the other hand, Luke and Ben simply could not indiscriminantly
blow up a planet, because they could not justify it with their beliefs, and
neither could we.  Its harder to live by morals than it is not to.  And since
it is easier to live without morals, we are more naturally attracted to the 
evil (which is easier) rather than the good (which is hard).  This is
basically how it was explained in a Film Noir course I took in college.

Somehow, I thought wherry was bigger than a turkey--more like
