I love the Moby Dick one, Daus. Never get on well with that book, have tried several times and failed miserably.
 
:) And it's quite clearly the scifi that attracted you to them

I just wanted to make a contribution to the science fiction discussion.

Asimov is one of my all time favorite authors. I am afraid I have read every science fiction book/story he wrote...I've even read some of his non-fiction.
I'm also a fan of Clarke and some of the others listed. More recently, Ben Bova and now Jack McDevitt.

But lately, I've been reading a lot of non-fiction. And porn. :D

Ha! I read the whole thing in High School. I think you have to love, sailing, history, the history of sailing, and well, just long, long, long windedness to like that one.

Hmm, I like long, long, long windedness...just not about catching whales!

my fav quote-

“Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off - then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can.”
 
A very interesting group of intellectual and sexy women that are free spirited.
Wish there were more like them.

it helps that NY state has a law allowing women to be topless in public where men can be, as long as no one is charged to watch.
