Let There Be Light

"The Last Question" is going to be a must read for the next Science Fiction class I teach.

I'm getting sick of that story. It's definitely well written, but for some reason it's in almost every anthology you can find. It's not quite as bad as Nightfall, but it's close.

I totally forgot, but I've read this before. I came upon it a while ago and sent it to my astronomy teacher as a joke. Great story!

What you need to read, if you haven't already is the classic "I Have No Mouth and I must Scream." by Harlan Ellison. Talk about original. Arthur Machen's "The Great God Pan" is phenomenal too.
