We get a half-hearted reason for HAL's insanity, and a couple of interesting versions of non-earth life, but not much else. At least Friday was a "new" novel (yes, I know about Gulf), and Foundation's Edge covered a different time and characters. While I found 2010 a pleasent read (like almost all Clarke), in a month I will have forgotten almost the entire thing. Joe
