	C. S. Lewis and Issac Asimov:
		The manipulations of N.I.C.E. of the media concerning the events in Edgestow were a classic example of a primitive form of psychohistory being abused not for scientific observation, but N.I.C.E.'s own unscientific goals.
		Lewis's fears of an iron and pavement world was expressed in N.I.C.E.'s admiration of the moon which had "purity" and "not one blade of grass, not one fibre of lichen, not one grain of dust" (Lewis, Hideous Strength 175).
		Lewis once noted that science "by reducing nature to her mathematical elements substituted a mechanical for a genial or animistic concept of the universe." Basically, Lewis was implying that science was deflating aesthetic beauty to mere numbers.

		Though I am Oxford-bred and very fond of Cambridge, I think that Edgestow is more beautiful then either.
