Characters

Does this article really need the list of characters ? - it seems unnecessary to me. -- Beardo (talk) 22:01, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

agreed; on the other hand, it might be useful to point out the author's "competent person" mantra which manifests itself here as in many other stories. By the way, this was one of the stories RAH did not sell outright, and which he revised with guidance from editor Frederic Pohl in order to bring it to market. Any readers who dislike RAH's penchant for "expositurgidity" may note that it was much worse in the version that was originally rejected. 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:3167:66A1:1588:91FA (talk) 12:37, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

an inner power that is a lot like The Force in Star Wars with less focus on fighting and more focus on art. Unlike Luke Skywalker whose talent with The Force seems to be a family trait

much as I adore Star Wars, I think this cheapens this article as an encyclopaedic entity - as opposed to a blog post, fort instance. 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:3167:66A1:1588:91FA (talk) 12:33, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The folks living in the cave claim that Mark Twain was one of them, as well as Walt Whitman and Oliver Wendell Holmes. As part of their program to protect America as a bastion of freedom they also invited Abraham Lincoln to join.

Yes, it's a sausage party. When RAH pauses to consider gender equality issues, he leans progressive and creates forceful gifted female protagonists (always darn sexy ones, though), but otherwise he defaults to the established conventions of his time. 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:3167:66A1:1588:91FA (talk) 12:40, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
