I really liked Blish's story. ( )

Clarke advanced an idea, the three writers did their takes on it. An interesting exercise. ( )

How The Past Went Away
This was probably my favourite of the three, an intruiging idea and using the characters to shor the effects from different points of view.

The Eve of Rumoko
Another fascinating idea, and also slightly scary if you think too much about the parallels between this and how centralised data storage is not neccessarily a fantasy any more.

We All Die Naked
Another scary view of the future. It seems such a logical future - the world consumed by rubbish. Probably my least favourite because of the characters though.

Definitely a worthwhile read in total. ( )
