Poll question: Which Universe...
I think this is my very first poll on DU.

Which Science Fiction universe would you like to exist in?

6. Futurama of course!
Having Richard M Nixon as Earth President is better than * as US President. Also I'd like to go to the planet Nibbleonian and take part in the Feast of a Thousand Hogs.

7. True
I know nothing about futurama, but while Dick Nixon was evil, he was at least intelligent & competent. Bush may not be stupid, but he is a bumbling incompetent.

8. Cordwainer Smith's universe, watched over by the Instrumentality.
It's a long future--how about just after the Rediscovery of Man?

12. My vote for Nivens Known Space.
Somewhere around Beowulf Schaeffers time, while Puppeteers are still about and the Teela Brown effect hasn't taken hold.

14. The gas torus from "Integral Trees"
That would be a cool ecosystem to live in. Air, water, life, all in perpetual free-fall.
