"Do not confuse "duty" with what other people expect of you; they are utterly different.
Duty is a debt you owe to yourself to fulfill obligations you have assumed voluntarily."
~ Robert A. Heinlein, 1973

Mingil hetkel hakkas täna pea tuikama, võtsin tabletti ja sobrasin peahägu hajumise ootuses pisut Digaris...
Ja siis see silma jäigi: Heinleini jutu tõlge EKP Kallaste Rajoonikomitee ja Kallaste Rajooni TSN häälekandjas «Nõukogude Küla». Aasta oli 1958.
Jah, ma olin Heinleini nime juba kohanud 1954. aasta Lihula lehes avaldatud tõlkeartiklis, aga et terve jutt kohe. Jah, kaudtõlge vene keelest, aga ikkagi...
Põrnitsesin seda ja olin suht tummaks löödud.
Eelmine kuu Lemi romaani tõlge, nüüd Heinleini jutt. Mis järgmiseks? Milline bibliograafilne üllatus mind veel ees ootab? Kas mõni tolleaegne lokaalne leht on ka Philip K. Dicki tuumavarjendi jutu vene keelest ära tõlkinud?

I'll never forget the sf convention panel I was on with #RobertSilverberg about sf's supposed predictive value, where the subject of #RobertAHeinlein came up, and Silverberg sniffed, and, in that trademark bone-dry way of his, said, "Ah yes, 'Robert A Timeline.'"

Like most of Paul Verhoeven’s movies Starship Troopers (1997) has been widely misunderstood. There’s so much action, violence and noise and so many special effects that a lot of viewers don't notice that this is satire, and that it's intended to satirise Heinlein's novel.
Intelligent provocative scifi.

The short stories about constantly drunk genius/inventor Gallagher, and his robot, never stopped to amuse me.
Does anyone know modern #SciFi writers, who writes in that humorous/light style these days?
