I am a big fan of Computers and the Imagination. I ended up trying out most of the code samples using the built in BASIC of my IBM XT to churn out ASCII graphical goodness.

I haven't read any of your books, preferring non-fiction instead. An ex-IONS member, i have enjoyed all the tangent threads and the path it weaves. Hope you had a good vacation :)
