I re-read The Diamond Age, by Neal Stephenson; it represents what I love about Sci-Fi: Interesting ideas on the edge of plausibility; a speculative society based on their consequences; a clever story and setting. Leaves me with a "Could be build that?" feeling.
It's inspiring one my current side-projects; a molecular and protein modeler/simulation.

- c54 4y agoI read Quicksilver and started on The Confusion this year but still haven’t felt like it’s grabbed me. When did it start getting more exciting for you?
- the__alchemist 4y agoI have; it was great fun!
- oceanghost 4y agoThis is my favorite book. I have a signed first edition. I'm super happy to see someone else appreciates it :-)
