I'm not a fan of End of the World stuff. I prefer fiction. But seriously (and I am being serious), we now have so many ways to destroy ourselves it's not funny. And Fukishima is out of control...If I want depressing End of the World stories, I read the news. Perhaps for these reasons, I don't like dystopic fiction. Science-fiction used to be about hope. Maybe that's why it's either shallow or depressing these days.
