Enjoy the day, listening to Slayer or watching The Omen. A good day to watch a horror movie, read a novel or listen to some really scary music. I'll remind everyone of the triple review I did of horrific stuff in Lost Pages some time ago. To make a brief addition to the above, on a day like today you can't go wrong reading or watching The Exorcist. For your listening pleasure, given the day, I will definately recommend some Slayer: Reign in Blood or, released on September 11, 2001, God Hates Us All. Slayer's DVD, Reign In Blood: Still Reigning, is also quite amazing.

Frederik Pohl interviewed in SciFi Weekly

Long one of my favourite authors, Fred Pohl is interviewed in a recent SciFi Weekly.

What do you think is your greatest achievement, of everything you've achieved in your life?

Pohl: I think Gateway is my greatest achievement, because not only is it a great book, but it was a groundbreaker in many ways. It was told in unusual ways. I used sidebars to convey information in a way that nobody else ever had, and I think it worked pretty well, so I like that. But, I don't know. I'd say Gateway.
