I'll leave him alone for now. I wouldn't want to stifle his development, especially when he's learned to use actual paragraphs in this very thread! *chokes up* Our baby's all grown up. . . 8)

Thanks for clearing that up. We can rest easy now.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Ya, soon he'll be jetting off to college, fulfilling his dream of being the first male to dress up as an Andorian pleasure slave at the star trek convention. Kids grow up so fast don't they? [Razz]

I read Red Mars, and I don't recall any Martian incest. In fact, I don't recall any Martians (except in the sense of "residents of Mars"; but they were human). But, yeah, there was a space elevator.

Of course, since I didn't think Red Mars was very good, I didn't read the other two. So I couldn't say if you're thinking of one of those.

I always assumed Kim Stanley Robinson was a woman. People really should be more careful about naming their children.

GENERALLY - and I do say generally Kim = a guy, Kym = a girl.

Kim Bauer. Kim Griest. Kim Wilde? Or is it Kym Wilde?

Forget Kim, it's the poor woman whose middle name is Stanley that I'd worry about.

It brings balance to a world of men with Maria as their second name.

And it's Kym Wilde. Twenty lashes for not knowing.

My brother's middle name is Kerry. And yes, I know that can be a boy's name as well. Except that it plainly isn't.

Er. . . Isn't his first name Keith? And isn't your surname Kavanagh? Because that would mean. . .

No, his first name is Sean. I've got a younger brother called Kieran, but he's middle-name-less.

Also, Keith?

I think Red Mars was the title of the book. I got halfway through the second one (blue mars?) before I got bored with them. And do seem to remember martian (they were called martian because they were born on mars) incest being in there somewhere, one of the characters liked to make whoopie with her brother or something like that. I didn't think it was a very good book either.

I known plenty of people named Kim, all girls except for one guy, and NONE of them spelled it Kym. I've never seen that spelling before at all.

If it's incest, then it's probably a Heinlein book you're thinking of. Dude had issues.

I know 4 Kim's. Three of them are Kimberley, the other is just Kim. Two of them are male. So, I'm not sure what's up with that. I also knew a guy named Allison once..
