Some neat little rumors I think other alt.cyberpunks might be interested in,
or already know.  I'm crossposting this to rec.arts.sf-lovers because I find
it rather odd that cyberpunk is ghettoized in alt.cyberpunk.  It really seems
that alt.cyberpunk should just merge with rec.arts.sf-lovers.  It would make
more sense that way.
     
Anyway, the rumors/gibberish/baldfaced lies:
     
Apparently, Timothy Leary (60's drug advocate, current president of Futique
Software, and recent author of a Rolling Stone article on cyberpunk) currently
has something to do with a project to make a video game out of Neuromancer.
Anyone know more about this oddness?
     
More Neuromancer oddness:
     
I've heard that some company or other has purchased the rights to Neuromancer
and has already begun building sets and such.
Anyone have information on this?
     
[A possible apology:  If any of this stuff has appeared before, I apologize for
wasting time with it; just recently, alt.cyberpunk became a valid newsgroup in
PSUVMA, so I may have missed discussion of this.  If not, I suppose I can take
a bow for bringing new information onto the newsgroup.]
