[TheForge] Re: Fall <grin> winter project.

I am so impatient for him to release something new, I am about to start 
the Baroque Cycle for the second time.
Have already read Snow Crash at least 3 times, (love that Hiro 
Protaginist), Diamond Age at least twice, Cryptonomicon 3 times.
Maybe I will take on the Stephenson/Gibson novel about the invention of 
the Computer again- been a while since I read that.
Then I will work my way thru all the Iain Banks books again- if you 
havent read them yet, put em on the list.
