From the man who created Tribbles! Enough said.

No? Is the net that broken? Well then, go to your local convention, bookstore, or comic shop and holler "Quapla'!" a time or two, an appropriate Resource will find you.

More later. When I can stop laughing

Great introduction to David Gerrold

The same thoughtful, entertaining writing I've come to expect from David Gerrold from reading his longer works. Three more words.
