I got an interesting listener email about old science fiction. Here’s an excerpt: Listening to your previous review of Jules Verne’s novel I remembered that as a kid I used to get his books from the library all the time, multiple times.

I’ve uploaded loads of photos this evening, from Portugal, Spain, Andorra, France, Switzerland, Norway, Svalbard, Iceland and Lichtenstein. The first album, mainly holiday photos of Pola and I, can be found here: http://www.sosauce.com/album/9204/spain-andorra-france-july-2009/ The second album is more travel and wildlife oriented, and can be found here: http://www.sosauce.com/album/9205/arctic-trip-july-2009/ No bears this time!
