came across this little new/long/short discussion
I came across this little new/long/short sun discussion thread - the first post starts off linking to my old Short Sun paper (I wrote that a LONG time ago when I was a much younger man?- would have done some things differently now, like dropping Derrida). Criticism and outright dismissal without addressing the points of this will always be a sore spot from the list reaction years ago - I can't help it. ??So I signed up and started to defend the position on page 4 but instantly? that dismissive attitude still gets under my skin. Typos are from typing so fast. "eh" http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?687417-I-desire-discussion-on-Gene-Wolf-s-New-Urth-Long-Short-Sun-cycle-anyone-game

I have read that piece, Marc, and I find it fascinating. To me it is a valid interpretation, and one I have kept in mind during my recent re-read.

Thanks Aaron. The criticism is correct in one thing - the solar system's state has to be extremely altered by something for it to be the future. I have read that piece, Marc, and I find it fascinating. To me it is a valid interpretation, and one I have kept in mind during my recent re-read.
