Many thanks. This is a great torrent; but, unfortunately, it is by no means a complete set of Lem. Missing are "The Astronauts" (1951), "The Magellanic Cloud" (1955), and others.

HandsOfManos at 2013-08-11 05:45 CET:

@erasmophilus: Since the two texts you mentioned were never translated into English, should I assume you're volunteering to remedy that?

SIWOTI indeed...

erasmophilus at 2013-08-11 15:35 CET:

"The Magellanic Cloud" has not been translated; I'm not sure about "The Astronauts". However, the complete Pirx the Pilot stories have been, and the 2nd volume of the English translation ("More Tales of Pirx…") is not included here. Also missing are the translations of "Dialogues" and "Summa Technologiae".

HandsOfManos at 2013-08-12 00:29 CET:

Only one chapter of The Dialogues has received an amateur translation, and Summa Technologicae was only translated a few... no. Forget it. Build a better torrent that meets your pedantically high standards if it bothers you that much.

Seriously, I'll never cease to be amazed at people getting stuff for free and their first instinct is to *complain* about it.

erasmophilus at 2013-08-12 16:17 CET:

Observing that this torrent is not a "complete Stanislaw Lem collection" is no more a complaint that it is to observe that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

As to "first instinct", some people's first instinct is to say, "Many thanks. This is a great torrent". But that's easily overlooked, isn't it?

HandsOfManos at 2013-08-12 19:18 CET:

*sigh*

Ok, since you're apparently unaware of what passive-aggresssive pedantry looks like, carry on. As I said, when you make a better compilation torrent, include all of the untranslated Polish you want.

Or better yet... if I doff my cap, tug at my forelock, and say you're the gee gosh super-smartiest guy in the whole wide world, will you do us a favor and just wander off?

Sorry I can't oblige by replying in kind. Life's too short to waste it on ad hominems.

From the user pages: HandsOfManos: over 40 uploads, erasmophilus: 0 uploads. Why is it that, on TPB, the louder a user's complaints, the smaller is his/her contribution to the site? Thanks very much for this excellent upload.

Thanks for the great collection. I have many of these, but I still needed half of them. Yay! I can finally read _The Invincible_
