Hey Brin, when are ya gonna get back to writing scinece fiction? Just because yer an expert at that doesn't mean you're an expert at anything else...This post, for instance - these ideas are just about straight from The Lucifer Principle by Howard Bloom: what drives history is people wanting their group/meme to beat other groups/memes and climb the pecking order, just like individuals' purposes in life is to climb the pecking order. It's useless to decode what the memes say they say ('family values, for instance') - because the only function is to divide people into us and them. There. The human sociology book's been done. Now Kiln People - there was a good read. Very high on the entertainment scale, very different sci-fi universe, and light on the politics. When can we have another one like that?
