I read a lot of early science fiction, including Asimov starting when I was 10 - I was a serious kid, and his mix of real science, philosphy, and futurism appealed to me greatly. I burned out on SF pretty completely by the time I hit college, but this story reminds me why I loved him.
The Last Question by Isaac Asimov
It's also pretty interesting as a "computer [technician]" of sorts to see how near and far from the mark mid 20th century SF was regarding the little box of tricks you're using to read this.
Enjoy.
