Happy National Science Fiction Day!
I only learned today that Isaac Asimov's birthday of January 2nd is National Science Fiction Day.
I confess to minimal knowledge of "hard" scifi fiction. I own a book of time travel stories, and have read a bit here and there elsewhere, but can hardly call myself a serious fan of the genre. My fandom of Asimov comes from his nonfiction, especially his science essays.
(P.S. My boxes upon boxes of Star Trek novels really don't qualify has "hard" scifi, do they?)
