Clever, very clever. It's been a while since I've read Ringworld, but do need to again. A nice play on words in your filk of Louie Louie. Too bad I didn't have the midi to go along with it (I'm at work), but I could hear the tune in my head as I was reading this. Good show.

<br>I'm in somewhat the same boat -- read the original Ringworld novel probably decades ago, read (I think) The Ringworld Engineers, but haven't read Ringworld Throne or whatever the new one is. The Niven collection Scatterbrain includes a Ringworld story -- I'm not sure where in the chronology it falls.<br><br>Haven't played the MIDI file yet (at work) -- I have a strong suspicion that I'm 'hearing' the wrong tune in my head ... we shall see.<br><br>Rock on, Dan'l.<br><br>Robert M.
