Hi all: I remember many years ago reading an illustrated novel called "Home From The Shore". Might have been by Ben Bova, but I really can't remember now. It was very similar to life on Poseidon, from the perspective of a native who had tried his luck with something like the Incorporate or a military organization (again, age and time screws with memory), and didn't fit in. Anyway, the title is correct, so if you can find it in a used bookstore, I recommend it.
