Unfortunately our nation, nay, our world, is run by evil morons.

Some ideas you have to chew on, then roll them around a lot, play with them before you can turn them into funky science fiction.

If you think of your life as a kind of computation, it's quite abundantly clear that there's not going to be a final answer and there won't be anything particularly wonderful about having the computation halt!

It's tedious to watch something very obvious being worked out, like a movie that's not particularly good and after about half an hour you know how it's going to end.

I like to do things that are surprising and different.

I like a book better if I can't predict what's going to happen.
