Haven't read any of his stuff in quite a while but I used to be a fan. My extended family recently opened this 20 year time capsule and my cousin had put in a copy of Cat's Cradle, so I was thinking about it recently. I like the ice-9 concept. Just great thought experiment style sci-fi.
I liked Cat's Cradle as well. Some of my other favorites were Breakfast of Champions and Mother Night.

It's cool that at least the name is paralleled in reality. But I like the concept that just a scrap of this stuff would start a chain reaction freezing the oceans and so on.

Hella welcomes to the party pal!!
-------------------- Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not. --Jac O'keeffe
