[QUOTE=dbuzman] The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress. Mannie is the nickname for one of the lead characters and Mycroft Holmes is the computers name. [/QUOTE] Of course! :smack: I _have_ read “The Moon is a Harsh Mistress,” but forgot the Holmes reference. ( **What Exit?** , I agree, it’s a great book). ---

Stupefyin’ Jones. She’s a character in the musical _Li’l Abner,_ which of course isn’t science fiction. However, Stupeyin’ is a robot so I figure that counts and, anyway, I played her in a high school production of the play, so I’m fond of the name. ---

Well, now, i call foul. If **Sonia Montdore** gets to pick Li’l Abner then I get to pick General Bethlehem from “The Postman”. That’s not really sci-fi either but hey it’s futuristic and it stars Will Patton. And any movie with Will Patton is okay by me. This hijack is brought to you by I’m sorry and please carry on. ---

[**Uh, Clem**](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Think_We%27re_All_Bozos_on_This_Bus) - I fell in love with it when I thought about it long after I got my current user name which I like slightly better. And it most definitely is Science-Fiction related. I suppose another good one from the album would be **Dr. Memory**. ---

There’s already a **Severian** and a **Terminus Est** , though neither seem to post here anymore. The next choice would be **Analeptic Alzabo** but that seems to be some sort of software now. That leaves me with: **Erebus** **Abia** (too feminine?) **Dr. Talos** **The Autarch of Urth** **Triskele** **The Hierodule** **Cacogen** **Jonas** (“She will love me when I am whole again”) **Father Inire** or **Father Inire’s Mirror** **Ash, the last man** ---
