Larry Niven has a lot to answer for.

MoSWoK was an interesting thought experiment, but has less than nothing to do with the actual character of Superman.

It's seriously tainted my enjoyment of his other work - which is unfair, since it's mostly people who've read MoSWoK, and apparently never read a Superman comic book in their lives, who annoy me.

Eh I don't know how unfair it is. I think it's not great in itself, and I think it's of a piece of his other work, and also I don't really care for Larry Niven much at all - he just seems like he has his head up his own ass far too much of the time - I mean, he's a hardcore libertarian who's independently wealth because his great-grandfather was an oil tycoon involved in the Teapot Dome Scandal, which is just annoying. And in general, a lot of his work has the kind of... overly logical, technically-correct feeling that I get from Man of Steel, Women of Kleenex, and it's not something I'm a huge fan of.

Sorry if I'm not making sense here.

Then there was the attention-grab a few years back, "hey, listen to my opinions about SETI, because I'm a *Science Fiction Writer.*"
