In Response To: Niven? Pfff! (Chewbaccawakka)

: Niven? Be serious! Everyone knows Halo's truest and most direct inspiration
: came from the greatest of all the Giant Ring Engineers!

Ha ha ha ha
When I saw the post title, Niven? Pfff! my hackles went up, as I rather like his books --- but then I saw the donut. Ha! Now there's a giant installation I wouldn't mind exploring.....and eating.

In Response To: Don't be an embarrassment (General Battuta)
: Meanwhile, the early Halo fiction contains a couple dead giveaways that point
: to our favorite ring's direct ancestor - and it's not the Niven ringworld!

Erk--my worldview has crumbled! I am most curious about the 'direct ancestor'. Also, embarrassment is par for the course for most Reclaimers---it says so in the index.

Elysium looks gorgeous. I'm always up for more artificial environments in space with lots of greenery.
