It's always good to see flowcharts being used on the really important problems. I wonder if Wilson had a prior career as a computer programmer.

Stanisław Lem plagiarized this "computer" in his ​"​Fantastyka i futurologia​" ("SF and Futurology") 1973 ed. and some later.

Doc’s posting his original neo-pulp stories on Livejournal now; the Midnight War is a saga that he’s been accumulating since childhood, and he’s already exhausted one account and continued with another:

I imagine his cartooning paid much better than writing. Wilson has had at least one short story collection and two novels published, the novels being enjoyable enough mysteries, as I remember. (Read them when I was a kid.)

I haven't seen his fiction and now I am curious.
