Just after sending a post that mentioned Cyril Kornbluth’s 1951 story “The Marching Morons,” I read a news story about a new Will Smith movie based on Richard Matheson’s 1954 novel I Am Legend. Boy, 1950s sci-fi/fantasy sure has staying power. What a great era that was for the unfettered human imagination!

And Jonah just posted something about people being shrunk — Matheson again!

(And how prolific they were! Look at Matheson’s output, listed here.)
