I come from good northern stock, designed to work. I'm a writer, not a male model. It seems to touch many of our insecurities. The late nineteenth century writers were concerned about this, and their work dealt with that concern. I think by now we're coming to see technology as less of a threat, especially in the cyberpunk books of the eighties.
Tech is something to used, revelled in, celebrated, turned around.
This vast organic machine in which we live is finally showing its true strength. Pollen was part of that struggle. Thanks for your time, Jeff. When your ready, we'd better call it a day. Thanks a lot.
