Not to derail from the thread much, but my opinion on firearms TL:DR's into:

Everything has it's place, sometimes you need a quick followup shot to take down a deer humanely, dear god hogs are terrifying when they're pissed off and if the cops feel they need something for day to day operations, I don't believe that item/tool/widget should ever be denied from use and ownership by a law abiding citizen, also dergulate silencers I mean FFS Europeans treat them as basic safety equipment and sometimes make them mandatory.

I genuinely think he explores some interesting ideas, and does so in a pretty humourous way. I see him as a less serious PKD.

It's been a while since I've read him so his inclusion on the list is mostly due to my adoration for his work in my youth, but I'd be surprised if I revisited him now and hated him as most of /lit/ seems to.
