Not exactly, Jernau Morat. But the twist - way to go spoiling that, BTW - does have something to do with it. 8)

I was just crusing the Forums when I saw this thread up against a dark background, and it's been buzzing around in my head like a wasp factory.
Ha! Now who's cool?

Changing font size (put them inside <> brackets, and end with a "/font" inside <> as well): font size = "1" font size = "2" font size = "3" font size = "4" font size = "5" font size = "6" font size = "7"

Vogon Poet: Have you read any of Banks' non-scifi books? I've read Whit and Complicity, which were ok, but not nearly as enjoyable as the scifi stuff. If you like Iain Banks, you should try Peter F. Hamilton's "Night's Dawn" trilogy.
