Sci-Fi Vacations and Side Trips (episode 22 of the podcast)

This time on Science Fiction 101 we attempt to identify the best science-fictional places to visit. We start with a list of about 25 places, but hope to add more as time goes on. Indeed, if you have any further suggestions, we invite you to let us know so that we can add them! Our full list of vacation spots will be posted to this blog shortly, under a separate heading, so that we can easily update it without it getting lost amongst the podcast episodes. Also in this episode: Colin's royally fiendish quiz, and our usual run through of past/present/future SF. Items discussed include:  Mary Robinette Kowal Star Trek: The Motion Picture - Director's Edition on physical media Aldous Huxley's Brave New World is ninety years old this year  Clockworks 2 wiki, about the human/machine interface Joyce Carol Oates ' strange views of SF and fantasy Auction of Harlan Ellison material (to fund the Harlan and Susan Ellison Foundation, and the proposed Ellison Memorial Library) Man
