IIRC the protagonist was quite CP, but the setting       wasn't.              ..but like i said, its been a while since i read the book. perhaps       someone who has read it lately can shed some light......              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
