We're not into science fiction because it's good literature, we're into
it because it's weird. Follow your weird, ladies and gentlemen. Forget
trying to pass for normal. Follow your geekdom. Embrace your nerditude.
In the immortal words of Lafcadio Hearn, a geek of incredible obscurity
whose work is still in print after a hundred years, ``woo the muse of
the odd.''
Bruce Sterling
