SCI-FI
Welcome to LoveToKnow Science Fiction and Fantasy
Who doesn't love sci-fi or fantasy? The most popular entertainment franchises today - Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings - are either science fiction or fantasy, and in some cases, perhaps both.
Dragons, space travel, magical spells, androids, fairies, wormholes... how can you not love it? If you ever read Superman comics under the cover by flashlight, got Lost In Space in the sixties, attended a Star Trek convention ever, or had a 'Frodo Lives' bumpersticker in the seventies, you are one of us.
Sci Fi in the News
US transplant patients are increasingly looking to China as a source of healthy organs, available without a wait at a hefty price. CNN is reporting that these organs are taken from executed prisoners, often without consent, and reliable eyewitnesses suggest that the prisoners aren't always dead when their organs are harvested. LoveToKnow SciFi points out that this chain of events, in almost every detail, was predicted in Larry Niven's 1967 short story, Jigsaw Man.
