Hi All!
I wanted to get to this earlier, but it's been a tough couple of days.
First of all, thanks to Andy for the invite. I'm looking forward to meeting other people in the area interested in reading, writing, blogging and watching science fiction.
I thought I would share a list of a couple of my sci fi favs from different media.

I remember fondly reading the Foundation series...probably my first intro to "real" sci fi. Haven't read much Asimov since, but this definitely provided a "foundation" for future understanding of sci-fi.
Same goes for Bradbury. I recently reread F451, and it blew me away (again). Childhood's End is another of those "formative" books for me.
