If I had known that I would be here until two in the morning, I would have brought a book. Hurray time and a half.

Well, I started out the work day with Sunday's Monday's and Tuesday's newspaper. And the current book of choice is Neal Stephenson's "Tome the Size of a Particularly Large Dog", volume two of his "Tree Frightener" trilogy. Which does fit into my bag but tends to make the suspension of my car complain.

Have you *seen* these books? It's like Stephen King! They're like 6" by 10" and nearly a thousand pages each!

I -own- and have -read- those books! That's why I'm laughing!

They're a hell of a lot denser than anything King's ever done, too.

I'm a sucker for historical intrigue and anything that smacks of steampunk, but in my biased opinion they're also way more gooder.

I like to call it historical science fiction. =)

I... don't know if I've hit any science fiction elements yet. Are they well hidden?

More like historical fiction meets scientific history, so that's where I got "historical science fiction." It's historical, it's science, and it's fiction!
