I have lived in his small home town of Davis for a decade, and I still haven't bumped into Kim Stanley Robinson. From his writing, I was sure I'd run into him at Delta of Venus café one day. No such luck.
- camillescott 10y agoHe even mentions a "Delta of Venus" in 2312; however, his preferred spot seems to be Mishka's.

If it isnt the good coffee, tea, and pastries, Mishka's is filled with college students and professors, many of whom are scientists. Obviously scientists play a central role in his writing. Delta of Venus attracts the more alternative crowds, as well as english lit students and the like. The people there have edremind me of some of the characters and settings in Green or Blue Mars. In any case, these are just passive musings. I frequent Delta of Venus because I like the patio.
