Not exactly science fiction, but then again, not exactly not. A wonderful, 15-minute talk/story:

He just did a reading of his new book at the New York B&N at Union Square.  Jonathan Coulton also performed.  It was amazing.

I don't think it was yesterday, given that Coulton was giving a show in Glasgow yesterday (he's also giving a show in Manchester on Wednesday that I'm going to. Yay!)

I wish he would come to Toronto...

I wonder what it would be like to feel my brain...

This is the problem with The City, if one leaves it, even for a moment, one misses out on something really cool and/or important. The City is a fickle mistress, and it punishes those who leave it for the barest of moments.

I Twitter. I also occasionally blog on the Escape Pod blog, which if you're here you shouldn't have much trouble finding.
