[edit] The Book of Dreams

I must have dreamt the Gaean Reach. It's been fixed. Clarityfiend 23:29, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I found this in the Jack Vance article: "While Vance's stories have a wide variety of temporal settings, a majority of them belong to a period long after humanity has colonized other stars, culminating in the development of the "Gaean Reach." In its early phases (the Oikumene of the Demon Princes series), this expanding, loose and peaceable agglomerate has an aura of colonial adventure, commerce and exoticism." So it seems that the two phrases are interchangeable. Clarityfiend 08:17, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
