>>>And the theory that all the stories have been told, all the possible combinations have been tried out is actually rubbish. Every now and then I get a fresh story from somewhere - but it doesn't register anywhere in the books, because the research nowadays doesn't seem to consist as much of reading books to write about them, but rather of reading what others wrote already and then recompiling that. Which was predicted by Asimov as early as in the Foundation - and was a symptom of empire's decline :).
