[ale] WAY OT: Remembering a book

[Chuck Payne]

I have been reading the P. K. Dick's short stories, sad to say most of the
movies based on them don't follow story at all.

I do know that Foundation was the bases of the Role Playing Game I played
thru high school and college called Traveller by GDW.

Another writer that had a lot of books that were cool was E. E. "Doc"
Smith, I love to find his and read them.
