Did anybody on the list read the book Interface by Stephen Bury (= Neil Stephenson and his uncle)?
I read it during the elections, which added a marvellous synchronicity to the whole experience. I would learn about some consequence of the American political system in the book one day, then read about it in the news the next. To top it off, the book starts with the US deficit reaching 10 trillion dollars. On the whole, it is unsettlingly accurate on many points, only it places events at 2000 instead of 2008. /c _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
