Tom Lehrer's songs, a Robert Pinsky poem (about his love of a certain classic sf magazine, or more likely, the kinds of stories it promised)

Robert Pinsky, in the 28 July New Yorker: "Astounding Stories" (the story most thoroughly referred to in the poem seems likely to be James Blish's "Surface Tension", which was first published in the 1950s insurgent sf magazine Galaxy and was voted into the anthology The Science Fiction Hall of Fame by the members of the SFWA, the SF Writers of America)
