That is, the *actions* and *stories* happened in 1980, according to
the introduction, the actual movies were made in about 1969 by the
"Thunderbirds" team.
And those Moonbase girls were amazingly gorgeous. A few of the males
were finely built, too.

55 years?
Oh. Yes. I first saw "2001" in Stirling University's Student Union
way back in the early 1970's. They were probably still landing Humans
on the rock when I first watched it and the possibility of real, live
Moonbases was still very real.
"2001" was, at the time, fucking *amazing*!
It is still spectacular, even considering the advances in special
effects over the last half of a century.
Strangely, I thought the others were pretty poor in comparison. Even
the books were tedious.
It's rather like the "Rama" series. The first one was brilliant, the
rest were boring and not interesting.
What was the topic of this thread?

Yep. It's because Hal (Harold) was Art's favourite uncle and the
writer wanted the gentleman to be immortalised in his novelisation. It
was also the name of one of Art's sea turtles which he kept while
living a little south of India - the turtle of course being named in
honour of the uncle. "South of India" being either Sri Lanka or
Ceylon, I can't remember which.
