I've largely blanked on the plot of "Snow Crash" though I do recall enjoying it by the end. Stephenson gets a little dense at times, but in both that and "Cryptonomicon" it all comes together rather nicely.

"Snow Crash" also has one of my favorite supporting characters. You'll probably guess which one. Enjoy!

lj may be dying but i still keep posting. I haven't much as of late cause I haven't had much to say that is worth saying if you know what I mean. As far as i am concerned, fb will not replace lj and people will know where to find me when they care. it does suck not to interact as much though.

yah, I miss having the window into my friend's lives and getting to really know them better. Facebook just isn't the same with it's fast food approach to communication.
