Isaac Asimov was born on this day in 1920. He was a 20th Century renaissance man, a real honest-to-goodness polymath of the modern age.
His short stories "The Last Question" and "All the Troubles of the World" are favorites of mine. I've owned a paperback copy of Foundation for 20 years; maybe 2011 is the year I'm destined to read it. Hari seldon would know. I'm also keenly interested in The Caves of Steel and The Gods Themselves.
Asimov died in 1992.
