Sounds like perfect sun-lounging-on-holiday reading material! :smt081

Seriously Juliette, are you trying to break our brains?

I bet she's read it all, cover to cover, twice, and has just about enough information to create a doomsday device.

I have moved beyond Doomsday devices, but if anyone asks, I have recently sold a working model to one of my Israeli friends.
Some idiot out there failed to appreciate the beauty.

Agreed. Doomsday devices are just plain old-fashioned and primitive. Been there, done that. Now what (and when) did you intend to pay for the specs for the FV-capacitors you ordered last week?

Oh, and we'd recommend the "A time Oddyssey" series by Arthur C. Clarke & Stephen Baxter. It is high-quality Science-fiction. (note the emphasis on science)
