The Elephants of Neptune, by Mike Resnick
I like most all of what Mike Resnick writes, since he does it so thoroughly professionally. The Elephants on Neptune is no exception. It is well researched and executed, and I learned something. But while I liked it enough to give it 3 stars, I concede to be somewhat confused as to his point. Elephants are nicer than people? Surely not so prosaic. As he says, Neptune is a confusing place.
