For "spindizzies", see "Cities In Flight" by James Blish. These are great books. I've never seen 1999 but from what I've read this is the same idea. Spindizzies are used to move entire cities through space.

From: kdale@MINET-VHN-EM A few issues ago somebody asked something to the effect of, "By the way, what are spindizzies, anyway?" It's obvious that you have a good read ahead of you - _Cities_in_Flight_ by James Blish. 'Nuff said. Keith M. Dale (kdale@minet-vhn-em.arpa) BBN Comm Corp Stuttgart, W. Germany
