At Icon, I went to a panel about science and/vs. science fiction, and a lot of the conversation was about science fiction's ability (and lack of ability to predict), not to mention the question of whether the science matters so long as the story is good-- which is rather a challenging question if I take it seriously. What's fiction for, anyway

Neither side seems to be asking the essential question: even if the mad wizard created the Thing with crab claws and eight glowing eyes: how has it survived?
