Picked up my copy last night at a local bookstore, brought it home and dove
in. Got to page 60 before I crashed and burned for the evening, but will
have it done by the end of this weekend. So far? Excellent, although our
favorite authors initials show up *everywhere* since the teleputers (a
futuristic invention that reminds me of Oracle & SUN Computer's $500
Internet box )are abbreviated TP (that's my only spoiler).

Kinda feels like I'm reading this list to see those initals poppin' up....
