Random Bemusement...

[patgund]

I was thinking about the article I posted yesterday about the Department of Homeland Security using Sci-Fi writers, (Niven, Pournelle, Bear, among others) as a think tank to help defend against terrorists.

Then I thought of a couple SF writers I would like to see on that (Bujold, Weber, maybe Ringo)

And some I wouldn't want anywhere NEAR the idea (Stirling, maybe not Ringo)

Then my brain went "Hmmm, what about fantasy writers?"

And I got the immediate mental image of Department of Homeland Security policies and senarios......written by Robert Jordan.

NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
