I think I knew about it, but that was before my own (academic) fascination with the Mormon church. My husband turned my on to Card originally and has read maybe 15 of his books, which are all sitting on my shelf. Any other recommendations? That is cool that you have met Card.

Card recommendations? The Ender series is still up and running! Read them all.

then you might enjoy a discussion of that type of technology in Larry Niven's "Known Space" series. Some people in his alternate future worlds have drouds placed at the base of their necks which allow the transfer of direct electronic information. I am very partial to Larry Niven's works, as you can see from my earlier posts on this thread.

Artiste:
Is it Fantasy started by the USA? Since the USA might have destroyed space vehicle, as no choice to do so, remember lately?
Or is it Sci-Fi?
Last week, there was what seems more that one meteriotes near here? Many saw.
Have you or any heard?
Hugs!

the new Star Trek movie, Star Trek XI that premiers this year, has a web site with a forum. I have been over on the forum and it has really great sci-fi discussions, and a few current events topics as well.
you can also find some very interesting spoilers of the new actors playing Kirk and Spock as young men at the Academy.
WOW, they are hot and handsome! ;D
go see what you think of it, and add a few of your comments to the Star Trek Movie forum.
