i like heinlein in general when i want something fun to read and not think too
hard, but _stranger from a strange land_ had real meat and one of his short
stories about a revolution in an asteroid belt raised really good questions
about war, individual rights, and the effect of point of view on a situation. i
wish i could remember the name, but i haven't read the story in years.--matt
