I hadn't heard that joke and that's just about when I started reading SF. I read a book called "Bridge of Light" when I was about 13 and I still think about scenes in that book. I don't really remember the story, just some of the scenes. I've tried to find reference to it since then but I've been unable to. The title has been used so many times since then it makes searching impossible and I have no memory of the author's name.
Anyway that book got me looking for others like it and that's how I found out about SF. Keep in mind that SF in those days wasn't something nice people would talk about.
