I've long thought that "Endymion" and "The Rise of Endymion" by Dan Simmons were very much influenced by "The Door Into Summer" by Robert Heinlein. I am re-reading "Fairyland" by Paul McAuley - I wonder if Dan Simmons had read that too - other than one man's quest to find a girl, it also mentions the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright.
I hadn't realised that Dan Simmons died this year.

There is a latent deep strain of religious fanaticism in this, our culture; it is rooted in our history and it has broken out many times in the past. It is with us now; there has been a sharp rise in strongly evangelical sects in this country in recent years, some of which hold beliefs theocratic in the extreme, anti-intellectual, anti-scientific, and anti-libertarian.
Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988) American writer
Essay (1952-10), “Concerning Stories Never Written,” Revolt in 2100, Postscript (1953)More about this quote: wist.info/heinlein-robert-a/83…

FRIDAY (1982)
Acrylic - 30" x 20"Robert Heinlein does create memorable characters! Not even halfway through this book I had a nearly photographic image of Friday in my mind. By the time I finished I felt confident about the substance and approach my painting would have. 1/4

A quotation from Robert Heinlein
Could it be otherwise here? Could any one sect obtain a working majority at the polls and take over the country? Perhaps not — but a combination of a dynamic evangelist, television, enough money, and modern techniques of advertising and propaganda might make Billy Sunday’s efforts look like a corner store compared to Sears Roebuck. Throw in a depression for good measure, promise a material heaven here on earth, add a dash of anti-Semitism, anti-Catholicism, anti-Negroism, and a good large dose of anti-“furriners” in general and anti-intellectuals here at home and the result might be something quite frightening — particularly when one recalls that our voting system is such that a minority distributed as pluralities in enough states can constitute a working majority in Washington.

Robert Heinlein helped Philip K. Dick financially during tough times and offered to upgrade him to the electric age.
Heinlein used a crazy big Underwood with a custom soundproof housing. Later he used an IBM Selectric, and eventually, with help from his wife, Virginia, and fellow writer Jerry Pournelle, he made the switch to word processing. #RobertHeinlein #Typewriters #Writing 11/14

Ich finde diese Logik, die irgendwie glaubt, es wäre für junge Menschen positiv oder für die Gesellschaft, wenn man ein einjähriges #Pflichtjahr macht, straight out of Gesellschaft politischen Vorstellungen von #RobertHeinlein.
Siehe #StarshipTroopers, wo man auch erst nach einem Jahr Dienst für die teranische Föderation, übrigens nicht nur in der mobilen Infanterie, sondern auch anderen Stellen, die Bürgerrechte bekommt.
