Hi Rick - * http://www.employees.org/~jonixon/barsoom_distance.html * http://www.employees.org/~jonixon/barsoom_time.html Both are mostly untested and rely on...
... Good work, Jon. Unfortunately, time on Barsoom is not quite that simple. You may want to check out my article at http://www.erbzine.com/mag16/1630.html ...
... Say, that looks very nice! I will have to write Tom and tell him about it. ... I have actually made an Earth <-> Barsoom date conversion tool myself, in ...
... I did a story _Ayiesha, a MAiden on Barsoom_ where the heroine was 20 Earth Years and involved with a 350 year old Red man... I tossed in that part where...
I think that the programs work very well for people on our level. But then, I'm not sending a free-fall satelite to Barsoom that will take two years to reach...

... We can. Burroughs did specify units of length and time for Venus as well. Again, unfortunately, he was not perfectly consistent. I have some discussion...
... You give me the conversions and I can adapt the programs :-) Or you can do it yourself... the source should be very easy to understand. First each field is...
... Once I can read the code, I probably can. I do simple html and when I needed to do something more complicated, I would save a code and dissect it. ...

got it!!! I knew that if I relaxed and let my inner-nerd take over, I'd figure it out. I went to the URL and saved (took whatever suggestion the computer...

I think that we also tend to read Burroughs from the view of modern America where Sigourney Weaver fought and defeated numerous aliens, Red Sonja and others...
Well, back in Burroughs day, there was a separate but equal shtick going on. A woman wasn't expected to get into sword battles, but equally, women were...
Maybe it's been talked about already, but I HAVE to ask someone! I just read about the PIXAR "John Carter of Mars" movie that should be out in 2012 (I CAN'T...
I dunno. Gor's increasingly silly misogyny is a major turn off. And to my mind, it helped to kill the entire swords and planets genre. But rather than...
