    Footnotes Revisited

    Having looked again over yesterday’s piece, I’ve had a slight change of heart.

    As I’m sure you noticed, I made a comment in the footnote to the effect that I thought that my misremembering of Neuromancer‘s famous opening line was better than the actual one. I no longer think that’s the case.

    Gibson obviously knew what he was doing. “The sky above the port” is more euphonious than my “over the port.”

    Glad we got that sorted out.
