Oh, please, David, you can do better than that.
I'm ashamed to admit it, but a few months ago I was in a bookstore, and I guess I lost consciousness or something, but when I got home there was a copy of "State of Fear" in the bag. I don't know how it got there, really, but it was on the receipt too. Anyway, I figured better to slog through it than throw away $8, but it turned out I'd have been better off to just burn the $8. Not only is "State of Fear" not a scientific treatise on global warning, it is one stinking [excrement]-pile of a story, too. Crichton's commercially-successful mediocrity can't carry the weight of clumsy heavy-handed propaganda, and the book is buried under its own manure.
I"ve actually read the stupid book, and I was repulsed by it.
