is that different from the neal stephenson “snow crash”?
Hey! Thanks for catching that. I just read/reblogged a quote by Gibson and started glancing over the Gibson titles I have in the little stack of books next to my desk and I crossed a wire.
Cheers.
There’s more that I would quote on the first page of Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash than I would in the entirety of most books.
