Quotes Paul Liked
“Van was a type-two sysadmin, over six feet tall, long ponytail, bobbing Adam’s apple. Over his toast-rack chest, his tee said CHOOSE YOUR WEAPON and featured a row of polyhedral RPG dice. Felix was a type-one admin, with an extra seventy or eighty pounds all around the middle, and a neat but full beard that he wore over his extra chins. His tee said HELLO CTHULHU and featured a cute, mouthless, Hello Kitty–style Cthulhu.”

"Good stuff so far; classic cyberpunk with 'Johnny Mnemonic' & 'Mozart in Mirrorshades', then a sharp left turn to WTF did I just read with Jonathan Lethem's 'Interview with the Crab' then pretty bleak with 'El Pepenador' from Benjamin Parzybok and 'Down & Out in the Year 2000' by Kim Stanley Robinson. As cheerful as reading Interzone back in the day."

"'Getting To Know You' by David Marusek
Brilliant classic style short, mixing tech, social mores & economics
'User-Centric' by Bruce Sterling
Starts like a fluff piece, but ends up far cleverer and deeper than expected"
