  • A bit of "The Glass Bead Game" in the avout notion.

  • @AzoriaEilan You're reading out of context because the original comment I replied to is no longer here, I replied to a poster that wrote something to the effect that NS had invented the word "avatar". Cheers.

  • 2 or more camera angles: Good for TV drama, action packed movie scenes etc. Not so much necessary for Neal Stephenson interview!!! :-)

  • @GrantOnTheRocks

    Ditto on that line smacking you in the face and making you realize how awesome this book is

  • @Wintermute888

    It's funny that you've mention it because i've always imagined Neal Stephenson not as Jad but as Sammann!

    His photo in his Quicksilver book (where he has long hair and beard) fits Sammann's description almost perfectly!

    Also I would always consider Stephenson to be more related to an Ita! :)

  • @Wintermute888 nah, he's too young... maybe one of the Valers

  • I'm almost half way through the book, it took a couple hundred pages for me to really get into it, but now I'm enjoying it alot. This has to be the most intelligent writer ever.

  • I wish there were concents irl...
