Human beings are the only creatures on Earth who would go out of their way to stand on the easternmost tip of land in North America. Which might sound dismissive on the face of it, but we're also the same species that created the Quidi Vidi (pronounced "kiddy viddy") brewery, which turns out the only beer in the world made from glacier water.

ReplyDeleteI await kazoo and ukulele performances by other significant sf/f writers.
