Interesting thread. I'm 64 and some of my earliest memories of SF were the Heinlein books. Loved them until about the time of 'Stranger In A Strange Land'. Finished it, but didn't truly enjoy it. Really didn't read *any* of his later books. I've reread some of his earliest fiction (mostly the YA stuff) and still love his writing. Maybe I should reread Stranger and see if I see if differently now.
