quote [ Through all this musical history, the Les Paul has remained virtually unchanged, because no one would dare change it. Except for Henry Juszkiewicz, Gibson's mercurial CEO. He wants to shove an Ethernet cable into it. ]

quote [ In Gibson's novel 'Mona Lisa Overdrive', an aleph is a big chip which can store a huge amount of information. The intention of William Gibson aleph is to collect all available information on William Gibson and his work. ]
A good site for all things Gibson. If you go to the downloads (in "Related/Extras") section of this website, you can get a copy of Gibson himself reading Neuromancer. It's been around for a while I know, but I couldn't find it posted on SE before.

quote [ The more questions you pursue, it becomes more plausible that there's a different explanation: namely, that elements within the top USA military, intelligence and political leadership - which are closely intertwined - are complicit in what happened on September the 11th. ]
Barrie Zwicker, former Globe and Mail and Toronto Star writer, is producer of media criticism for Vision TV. A must read for all sheep.
