Gibson is probably the GOD of cyberpunk, I haven't read the Brunner books, yet and they're now on my list. But noone's mentioned John Varley who has been talking about high-tech/genetics for years. Also, Any word on the movie "Neuromancer"? Supposedly Peter Gabrielle plays the lead. Not exactly my first choice, but that's hollywood. I also hear Gibson has been doing interviews on Mtv, though I haven't seen it myself. One more thing, when I've discussed possible futures going along the lines projected in Gibson's books, and even "Blade Runner" the people I speak with inevitably get depressed thinking that it's a dark inhuman future. I, however, don't feel that way. --j PS. And don't forget ROBOCOP. jon wesener jojo@speedy.wisc.edu "If you like ASTROTIT, you should see what's coming! ;-)"
