Why have we never seen an Alpha Centauri 2?

Hey, thanks. But I think you may have put your finger on another good reason I for one haven’t gone back to that kind of topic – I certainly “gave it my all” when creating that setting, and so far I haven’t really felt the creative need to return to something similar. Or you could say AC cleaned me pretty well out of “pithy pearls of subversive wisdom”, at least for the nonce. :-)

On an entirely tangential note, because I’m a sci-fi fanboy too, I keep wondering if Battlestar Galactica will run out of good material soon. Though I’m starting to worry they already did this season.
