| Below is a link to an Internet book called "253 (or Tube Theatre)" by Geoff
| Ryman that my colleague received for xmas and showed it to me. Please excuse

| It raised a few questions for me: Was/is the author a Tech Writer? Is this
| the new millenium's incarnation of the Novel? Do non-TWs find this book as
| interesting as I do?

words "Simply click" appear on the home page. <yuk, yuk>
