You Am I posted:It owns hard. It is great to see how they bring Sherlock's mannerisms into a modern environment without him looking like a huge sperg. Love that series and can't wait for the next 3 episodes, which should be soon. okay, that's a problem. a fundamental part of sherlock holmes is that he's a borderline-autistic and insufferably pedantic rear end in a top hat with a deep-seated inferiority complex.

the real world caught up is what happened neuromancer and the other sprawl stories are set in a far-flung future world of ultra-advanced magical technology and sci-fi craziness virtual light and the other stories in that series are set in a near-future world of advanced technology beyond what we have today but not too far beyond pattern recognition and the other stories in that series are set in the real world, with googles and iphones and so on, with advanced technology pulled from articles he found in wired

Well i dint mean about his writing i just mean in general, like rate of tech dvelopment is fast enough that a sci fi writer can literally live to see his stories become contemporary fiction

yeah but that was happening fifty years ago i mean i understand what gibson's saying and it is kinda cool, but it doesn't really justify his crappy new books
