Found my copy of Dream Park. It was on the bookcase I started searching on, only the third shelf I tried. Er, they're stacked double depth and stuff.
I've told mom I can't think of anything I want for my birthday. I think maybe I should try 'bookshelves' and 'help to alphabetise onto them'.
... and also getting rid of the huuuuuuge box that my laptop arrived in. It's like a meter on a side and taking up half my living room.
ANYways
Dream Park
I like the beginning of it. Introduces the setting and the rules and the complex cast of characters. I feel like picking up bits and pointing to it and using it for demonstration purposes.
I also giggle because it has that special future invented in the far past, and the little bits like printer paper folding is quite amusing. Also California fell into the sea in 1985 and went religious when only the religious charities turned up to help. Which made me vaguely remember New Orleans - didn't I read the SCA did a lot of work there? Heh, yep, on Making Light - Say what you will about the SCA, but they do know something about dealing with large events that take place in a sea of mud.
:-)
(Truth / Fiction => Truth win)
PS: Record tapes! *giggles*
(Tho to be fair if they've just invented paper batteries there's no knowing what kind of storage would end up long thing flexible in the future.)
... also, they're not acting as if every inch of everywhere is covered by CCTV
and the guard wandering around did not seem to have a little camera like the Torchwood comms do.
