More notes from the Grandmaster.

The hero of Starship Troopers Juan Rico and his friend Carl are joined by Carmencita Ibanez, she has decided to join up as well. They have entered the recruiting office and the sergeant ignores the two men

From Starship Troopers
by Robert A. Heinlein

<<"Good Morning young lady, what can I do for you ?"
"I want to join up too."
He smiled. "Good girl! If you'll just scoot up to room 201 and ask for Major Rosas, she'll take care of you."He looked her up and own. "Pilot?"
"If possible."
"You look like one. Well see Miss Rojas."
She left, with thanks to him and a see-you-later for us; he turned his attention to us, sized us up with a total absence of the pleasure he had shown in little Carmen. "So?"
he said. "For what, Labor battalions?"
"Oh no! I said. "I'm going to be a pilot."
He stared at me and simply turned his eyes away.>>


You are besmirching that fine name, you should go back to the phone book, go by the L's and get a nice name like McDonald or McGowan, you would be happier and you would not misrepresent the ideas that Heinlein portrayed.
