You do! I'm going to owe all of Boston ice cream by the time I get up there, I'm sure.
I think there are going to be technical purists in any sort of science fiction. I also think that the story comes first, because I'm a writer and not an engineer. (I'M A DOCTOR, NOT AN ESCALATOR!) That particular view is probably one old men get together in dark paneled rooms to argue about. And as much as I really enjoy research and editing and the technical aspects of writing, I kind of like to have a spark there as well. At least in the first draft. I'm totally reserving the right to be sick of things the fourth time I edit them. :p
