Cap'n Q

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"

Oops, that's probably "Greased Lightning", unless there is a reference I'm not familiar with. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon12.gif

Of all the ships names i came across all the Sci Fi novels i´ve read, the most impressive to me (i never forget that) is in the "culture" saga of Iain Banks

They have a capitol ship that sizes about 6 km long, able to destroy a world, with gazillions of populations into it.
Its commanded by an AI, and its name is...

"Size isn´t everything"

There are other names troughout the novels (i´ve read 3) and i was always amazed by that ...

I am not sure if this is the proper thread to mention it, but I read over 100 of the Perry Rhodan novels as well as all of the Dumarest of Terra up until 1986. Both series were chock full of cliches...
