	The Life and Times of Multivac by Isaac Asimov
		A protege of John W. Campbell (whom at least until the 1950s he used to visit weekly whenever possible for editorial sessions), Asimov was devoted to hard science fiction, generous in his praise of other hard science fiction writers, and always careful to distinguish hard sf from other varieties.
		It is also an interesting counterpoint to Asimov's "The Last Question," an earlier Multivac story, and a more serious (and uncharacteristically metaphysical) consideration of humanity's relation to machines.
		"The Life and Times of Multivac" was written in 1973 at the request of the New York Times Sunday Magazine for a science fiction story about humans and machines.
