  • wow nice commentary

  • @help4343

    I know but it's still cool....

  • @DCdabest

    Yes, millions of people are born every month, and Asimov was a popular writer.

  • @DCdabest

    Don't forget to read his marvelous essays! FYI did you know that he died from AIDS? Bad blood tranfusion during surgery. That damnable 80's denial!

  • @xhable You must be out of a sane mental state... I hope you get better soon. When you do, think about the absurd of your words.

  • He make no mention of radio which produced two marvelous Science Fiction series, Dimension X and X Minus One. Both available for download on the internet. These series were written by the masters of The Golden Age in Science Fiction.

  • Awesome writer... but wow he was so boring to listen to 0.o

  • this man died the year and the month i was born.... and i really love his work...coincedence?

  • wow. the galactic empire.
