That's a familiar cover. Goes back a few years, I think.

wasn't there a novel series by spider robinson involving the flooding of washington dc..?

Fred said...

Mudpuddle--I don't know about Spider Robinson, but Kim Stanley Robinson wrote _Forty Signs of Rain_, about flooding Washington, DC. It's the first book in his trilogy, "the Capital Code." The other two books are _Fifty Degrees Below_ and _Sixty Days and Counting_.

Tx, Fred; i suspected something, but didn't get it quite right, a life-long characteristic...

@ RT: I think we need a *flying* boat!

@ Fred: This was first published in 1958. Quite prophetic really....

1958? I didn't realize it went back far.
