Ai did not know about 2040 and 2061, nice order both books now...

Allways thought the monolith was a portal or is that the really really big one around Jupiter (in 2001)? I'am going to watch them both on dvd (yes i have them, legal non p2p version)...

The "monolit" is a monster with a car head lamp stuck in the middle of it's forehead. Quite common really.
