The reference to Isaac Asimov in my previous post made me think about one of the reasons I'm so engaged by Y2K--all my life my favorite reading material has been apocalypse stories. First the reader is scared by the disaster. Then follows a new paradigm and a process for the redevelopment of civilization. Grabs you by the throat and also stimulates the right side of the brain.

A few posts ago, Jeff was trying to fill a lull in posting by asking about people's preparations. Perhaps some here have favorite novels along this theme that they can recommend--books suitable for reading by Coleman lantern.

My personal favorite is A Canticle for Liebowitz by Walter Miller. I'm due for a re-read.
