Re: Good Books (Scifi)
For those of you who follows John Ringo's (Black Tide Rising) series, his 4th book Strands of Sorrow is out. This is on my list to read. Is it as good as his others? I just finish The Hot Gate.

Re: Why men choose female World of Warcraft avatars
I play a lot of female characters in MMO's particularly in heavy PvP oriented ones since female characters tend to be smaller and are easier to get lost in a stack, also in some MMO's certain classes are female only and have female only disciplines.
