    Pick any planet/moon from Sci-fi movies/literature or in our solar system. I think living on a moon oribiting Saturn would be awesome. :) Marc

    I'd pick the pleasure planet "Risa [sp?]" from ST:TNG series. Nothing beats an entire planet of hedonistic women. :)

    Do you know...LinFu?

      Ahh ... Number of The Beast. The first Heinlein book I read.

      Wow. I cannot imagine what you thought when you got to the big party at the end - There are more references to other Heinleinia there than in any three histories of 20th century science fiction. Spider Robinson said that RAH wrote Number of the Beast for six million of his closest friends.

          that is what I was thinking. Lots of territory and variants of creatures to practice inter-racial rishva(sp). :-O

              My favourite was always Djelibeybi. (Pronounced "Jelly Baby" for those who are slow like me. It took me most of the book to realise the pun)

              What about Llamedos? I liked the "welsh" unti I realised that it was "Sod 'em all" backwards. Then I REALLY wanted to live there! :laugh:

                          If I get the technology, then I want to live on Sphinx in the Honorverse. This is assuming that they would have cured all the allergies I'm suffering with right now via genetic treatments to my ancestors. Also I want to be a captain of a heavy cruiser or maybe a battlecruiser. I'd like to do this a few years before all hell breaks loose and the kingdom has to go to war. That isn't to say I wouldn't fight for my country, but I'd like a few years of the relative peace of fighting pirates prior to all-out war. Also the gene-therapy of prolong would be nice.

                                  Star Trek: Next Generation - Risa, also known as the "pleasure planet". Risa is most noted for the frank and open sexuality of its native population. Identified by a decorative emblem on their foreheads between the eyes, Risians often initiate or respond to the desire for sexual relations through the use of a small statuette called a horga'hn, the Risian symbol of sexuality or fertility. Display of a horga'hn announces that the owner wishes to participate in jamaharon, a Risan sexual rite. Oooo, coach put me in!!!

                                          Ah, but the body is only identified in the later movies, it's anonymous in the original (and best IMNSHO).
