re: #170 allegro

I had the unfortunate experience of meeting him and having a too long sorta conversation with him at a convention. I say unfortunate because as a result of it I lost any and all respect for him and thus got very turned off from anything that bore his name. He was a patronizing, condescending, misogynist ass who spent the entire encounter staring at my tits. I couldn’t escape quickly enough.

In his autobio Asimov admits (quite frequently) that your’s was the reaction of many people upon meeting him. ;-)
