Hal Duncan is a God-damned genius11 o'clock, June 3, 2005It was only a matter of time before someone rammed Infernokrusher into the Mundane SF movement, but Hal Duncan has done it with exceptional style and grace: The Mundanes say: That interstellar travel remains unlikely. Warp drives, worm holes, and other forms of faster-than-light magic are wish fulfillment fantasies rather than serious speculation about a possible future. We of the Infernokrusher Movement say: We laugh maniacally in the face of serious speculation. We will have warp drives . . . on our MONSTER TRUCKS! We will have worm holes . . . and bullet holes, and drill holes, and holes punched through the very fabric of the spacetime continuum by the giant fist of MECHAGODZILLA! These are not wish fulfillment fantasies. These are metaphors for the destruction that is an integral part of every possible future. And more importantly, they’re fun. This Is What We’re Saying.™ Because Infernokrusher is all about the fun. |

Interesting that the questbook has no messages of support. Exactly who are the undersigned anyway? |

Did I just write questbook instead of guestbook? I should also have mentioned I was referring to the MundaneSF site. That has to be a joke right? |

I'm thinking it's 'cause guestbooks are so 1997. The real action's probably on the Yahoo group or something. The Mundanes have been around for a while, but they seem to have picked up some traction again recently. Not sure why. Anyway, I'm enjoying Ryman's Air, but I also want an Alcubierre drive for my monster truck. And explosions. Big explosions. |
Woo-hoo!
By all means. Have fun. I look forward to reading what the IK put out.
