Interesting. I'm going to run over to Amazon and buy this book. I finished reading "Snow Crash" a couple of months ago, and I thought it was a *great* book. I have a paperback copy of "Cryptonomicon", but I haven't gotten around to reading it (full time college student).

Oh man, I tickle at the thought of a movie version of "Snow Crash". The Metaverse in glorious hollywood-strength CGI.
