NAS Conference 2005 The 2005 NAS Conference is just around the bend. The event starts next Tuesday, October 18th in Santa Clara. It's not too late to register. The agenda is packed and the early look I've had of the presentations have been very interesting. Hope to see you there. www.nasconf.com ( Oct 11 2005, 05:03:18 PM CDT / Oct 11 2005, 07:00:40 PM CDT ) Permalink Comments [0] Trackback: http://blogs.sun.com/mtibbets/entry/nas_conference_2005  A Thread of Grace: Review My wife just finished up with A Thread of Grace for her bookclub so this weekend I got my chance to read it. Overall, this was a didisappointment. The potential for a great novel was there, but it suffered due to poor execution. Writing in the multi-character perspective is challenging for the best of writers, unfortunately Mary Doria Russell wasn't up to the challenge. The novel is very fragmented and choppy. I'm still a fan of the author and the concept was good, best of luck on the next one (I hope it doesn't take another 7 years).
