One of my favorites, and a more recent one that most in the article, is
Nightside City by former rasfw denizen Lawrence Watt-Evans. Of course
that's a case of, "Well we thought it completely locked. Not quite.
Oops."

I find one thing puzzling about your description of Brian Aldiss'
Hothouse. Presumably, to "go up" means to move to the Moon.

Given the perilous situation on Earth, shouldn't those capable of
reproduction be among those taking advantage of the opportunity
to move elsewhere?

Ah, but maybe the idea is that they will... _if_ the expendable elders
find out that survival is actually possible on the Moon.
