Location: Austin, Tx		I just finished Of All Possible Worlds by William Tenn (1955) and was pleasantly surprised by it. The book is a collection of 7 short stories, all of which fit one of the classic "science fiction story" premises, but almost all of which manage to add something interesting to the premise. I will definitely be picking up Tenn's complete works at some point (there is a two volume set) since my copy of Of All Possible Worlds is falling apart after one reading (it was the 1955 edition and had a very fragile spine when I got it).
