I would like to read more traditionally optimistic scifi, but the problem for me is that while I love science fiction, real science isn't my forte. Scifi writers often fail to do a good job defining what they're talking about in an understandable way. You have to describe the space elevator for me in a way that I can visualize it, not just say "space elevator" (or whatever) and expect me to get a picture in my head.

That said, I do enjoy the dystopian sci fi we've been seeing a lot of lately -- it's a natural for world-building and conflict.
