Commented on CMAP #16: Book Title Blues
Set during CASE NIGHTMARE GREEN under the rule of the New Management, but having nothing to do with the Laundry, "Lost Boys" is free to get away from the pervasive, claustrophobic assumption that of course the civil service spooks are...
Commented on Social architecture and the house of tomorrow
Greater Toronto Area, yes. I guess I'm some sort of neighbour to Robert Prior in #113. Along with around ten million others. :) It seems that a lot of the comments refer to the type of home, rather than the...
Commented on Social architecture and the house of tomorrow
Combine walls that are all video panels with ubiquitous augmented reality headsets, contacts, or other augmentation, and I'm not sure that you would need windows at all for urban living spaces. I imagine that open layouts will still be common...

Bellinghman commented on CMAP #16: Book Title Blues
I just checked her profile, and top of the list I was shown of people she follows was Charlie. (Amusingly my wife was down at #3 - but it is promoting people I engage with to the top) de Bodard is damned good.
