[NetBehaviour] Help Pleeze

[BishopZ]

Wow, nice site. re: http://meetz.thespace.org/

It is chrome only, as too many sites are these days. I think the art
is very beautiful - on a lot of levels - just the makeup is incredibly
well done.

The bridge between the realities of meetz and the circle is not very
long. From a literary perspective both explore very similar themes as
the Matrix did 15 years ago. Eggers is simply putting a fresh face (a
make-over if you will) on the "horrors" that have been public secrets
for far too long.

I agree that both are hard pills to swallow.

I also agree with Annie's assessment: "either people already are aware
or they just think it's not so very good written science fiction"

Btw, I think the artist's intention with the name "meet z" is its
similarity to both "meats" and "meets" and all the horror those words
incite.
