I think the statement "technically science fiction" is suspect - basically it seems to be saying that science fiction doesn't cover characters or social themes. Good science fiction often does. Also "sci-fi" is a loaded phrase. This seems to be a repeat of the old mantra "this is literature, so it can't be science fiction, because that's trash"... Notinasnaid 07:24, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

There is now a link from the protagonist's name, Paul Proteus. It doesn't seem likely there will be an entry on him, so I propose removing the linking. Notinasnaid 09:35, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
