| 1. Favorite book and why? |
My favorite Heinlein book remains "Rocket Ship Galileo". This was the first Science Fiction I read as a teenager and started me in the field. Several years ago I got the "as originaly written version" and enjoyed it as well. i still love rereading the juvnnals at the tender age of 64! I have read all of Heinlein books many times. I have a complete hardbound library of all Heinlein book! One signed by the master.

| 3. Favorite scene in favorite book and why? |
Ny favorie scene is from the short story, "the Menace from Earth" and is the scene of flying in the bat's cave. I am a glider/airplane pilot, flight instructor and pilot examiner. His handeling of flight please me a lot.
