Thanks for the omnibus
FYI:
Jules Gabriel Verne (French: [ʒyl vɛʁn]; 8 February 1828 – 24 March 1905)
Herbert George “H.G.” Wells (21 September 1866 – 13 August 1946)
HG wells was born after Verne had already published many of his most famous novels .... so any cooying was most the one way ...
Further, as a scientist I can tell you that Verne's novels make a lot of Scientific and Engineering sense ..... Wells is certainly not so ....
