| Dahl's heatsinks | ||||||

| Description: Dahl—One of the poorer sections of Trantor. The main job of the lower class is heatsinking, where workers supervise the conversion of heat from the planet's core directly into electric power; 'heatsinkers' were generally looked down upon by other Dahlites. Naturally, most Dahlites hated the Empire, and the soldiers of the Empire ('sunbadgers'). Dahlites were dark skinned, black-haired, and fairly short. Dahlite males wore a large, thick mustache, and all carried knives (then very backward). Rather than using 'Mr.', 'Mrs.', or 'Dr.', as forms of address, Dahlites always used 'Master' and 'Mistress' (never 'Doctor'). The name Dahl may be reference to the Indian dalit or untouchable caste. Known Dahlites: Yugo Amaryl, Mother Rittah, Raych Seldon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trantor Stats: Total Favorities: 2 View Who Favorited Filesize: 353.36kB Height: 800 Width: 1200 Discussion Topic: View Topic Posted by: bib  October 31, 2010, 02:05:31 PMRating:  by 5 members.Image Linking Codes

| October 31, 2010, 03:40:47 PM Yeah I've just started to read the Foundation series. What a great inspiration for fractaling  I don't think a movie is necessary, see what they've done with I, Robot  |
