Started reading science fiction over 60 years ago, still keep a stack of young adult Robert Heinlein novels on the night stand for bed time reading...nothing to turn off the brain like a story you know from front to back. Take The Planets' opinions on anything science fiction with a huge dollop of salt. Their supposed review of Starship Troopers is obviously taken from the movie, which may have been the worst film adaptation of all time and paid no attention to the book, other than to borrow a couple of character names.
