I was pretty impressed to discover that every trolley stop in San Diego has 
its own page on Wikipedia.

The first time I read about the Greentree database[1] I thought it was far 
over the top compared to any other science fiction concept there. Now I'm 
not so sure.


[1] For those who haven't encountered it, "Greentree" is the traditional 
name of the cyberpunk database that holds all accumulated knowledge in a way 
that is easy to access with neural connections. I think Vinge first called 
it Greentree (as in the name of the company that published it) and many 
other writers picked up the name from there.

   The NFL should go international. I'd pay to
   see the Detroit Lions vs the Roman Catholics.
