Well, thank you. I have to admit that Barbara and I now conclude we 
should have trimmed a lot more domestic chit-chat out of the opening 
chapters, because that slowed the thing down--which is okay in a 
novel you're reading on the train, but maybe not in daily portions. 
Now that we're at chapter 16, the story is coming together and the 
pace is speeding up. For a >H or extropian readership, a carefully 
not-too-shocking introduction might seem a bit boring. It's a 
trade-off. This is relevant to the discussion about a >H movie that 
tries to avoid slamming right into comic book extravaganza. It's a 
balancing act.

Anyway, if anyone was put off following POST MORTAL SYNDROME by its 
conventional opening, I'd suggest going back and having a quick 
browse as the chapters continue to accumulate at the COSMOS site. I'd 
be interested in feedback--pro or con.
