    Apparently all kinds of things go on inside goldenrod galls, beyond the caterpillars who make them. Fascinating. I've seen the galls but haven't…

There was a link to a spec-fic short story that you posted a while back (I'm pretty sure it was you, anyway)...it was set in an AU Earth where the dominant religion(?) was something based on ancient Egyptian religion, and the format was that of a news article reporting on how the people in this particular society were reacting to a catastrophic event that occurred a year earlier. Do you know what story I'm talking about? I've been thinking about it lately but I can't remember the name of it, and I'd like to read it again and maybe pass it along to a couple of friends. If you could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. :)

Hmmm... I think I remember that piece, but I'm not sure how to find it again. Maybe try searching the "fiction" or "Pagan" tags here?

http://www.strangehorizons.com/2008/20081117/forgiveness-f.shtml - "Until Forgiveness Comes", by K. Tempest Bradford. Still as good as when I first read it! *bookmarks it this time*

I don't think ebooks will ever replace paper books entirely. I think it'll be like the Star Trek world - lots of ebooks on data pads, but they still print paper books.
