Micah Redding@micahtredding·Feb 9, 2017Replying to @micahtredding and @vgrI've always been first foundation, but recent re-read made me a little more sympathetic to galaxia.21
Venkatesh Rao@vgr·Feb 9, 2017Replying to @micahtreddingI'm 2nd foundation myself :D... Galaxia is basically a compassionate Christian monarchy model, so not surprised :)2

brenner.eth@BrennerSpear·Feb 9, 2017Replying to @BrennerSpear @vgr and @micahtreddingI just read 4/5 of the Robot novels. Didn't like them as much. Might go read Foundation series again now1
