   *puts up hand*. Hi, I'm Jaimie, I've been reading SF for thirty years,   
   and I've never read "Frost and Fire" although I have read many other   
   Bradbury stories.   
      
   I assume that it's well off the top 10 must-reads, since I've never   
   heard of it in those terms before - and I've been on rasfw for over a   
   decade.   
      
   	Cheers - Jaimie
