    Hey Vinh!!

    Did you know that...

    H.G. Wells had a passionate concern for society which led him to join the socialist Fabian Society in London.

    The more you know the better!

    I have read both "The Time Machine" and "The War of the Worlds" and I agree with BCaputo that the Time Machine was very concept oriented. I also agree with Josh about how H.G. Wells showed his concern for the state of human society.

    I found it ironic that in "The War of the Worlds", the martians colonized and practiced imperialism on Great Britian which itself was number one in imperialism.
