The late 90s were crazy science-fictional if you were inside the superheated steam bubble of the dot-com 1.0 industry.

While writing a novel I almost completely stop reading books in the same sub-genre for the duration.

I'm a fuzzy-headed warm-hearted liberal, and I think fuzzy-headed warm-hearted liberalism is an ideological stance that needs defending-if necessary, with a hob-nailed boot-kick to the bollocks of budding totalitarianism.

Life begets intelligence, intelligence begets smart matter and a singularity.
