I work at a used book store. Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto is a great seller, one of the best selling titles we ever get in, in fact. As a result, we keep raising the resale price on the thing each time a new one comes in, and it keeps selling. I’ve never had to mark down a Communist Manifesto for sitting on the shelf for too long. It’s a textbook example of supply and demand in action… and I think that Karl would kind of hate that.

Getting closer to Snow Crash all the time.

You should never post anything online that you wouldn’t be comfortable shouting at the top of your lungs in the middle of your hometown.

There’s actually a very good stage play about this exact subject.
