Cheers Olly, was an interesting read. I need to get back to reading some
more interesting stuff. Too many tech manuals lately.

Anyone read Mr Nice by Howard Marks? Actually he's written another drug
anthology one that I really have to get. Am reading Dawkin's 'The God
Delusion' at the moment, preaching to the converted of course...

Also, all typos in the story I excerpted are mine. I just hand-typed the
passages in. I dunno if the story is online.
