Neal Stephenson Slashdot Interview
Check out his answers to the
questions from the Slashdot faithful.
My favorite part:
Q. In a fight between you and William Gibson, who would win?
His answer involves carbonite stilettos, the deaths of 800 people ("... they were only peasants, we did not care."), the sinking of part of Canada, and an eventual ganging up on Bruce Sterling, probably because of Zenith Angle.
The whole thing is typical Stephenson, and you can tell he's given some serious thought to the answers and knows whereof he speaks. Bravo, Neal.
