You see, I still live in the old world where 'science fiction' was the umbrella catch all term for the place where all manner of strange, weird, wondrous and imaginative fiction came to rest. I even see historical fiction as a branch of science fiction, as I think the principles are the same. You take some basic tenets of what you believe humanity to be about, and twist them to see what happens. SF often takes it forward in time, HF takes it back...
Well, that's my two cents worth, anyway!! This little debate could run and run...
