I frankly doubt the idea has much chance (a snowball's chance...) but
what the hell.  I do disagree with the Clarke vs Heinlein observation.
Agreed, Fountains of Paradise is better than Heinlein's recent stuff.
However, Heinlein at his best (such as Moon is a Harsh Mistress) is
superior to anything penned (or typed, whatever) by Clarke.  I like
Clarke's stuff too, but Heinlein (at his best) is far better.
