Disappointing. The technical part was a bit obscure, especially for someone who isn't fairly well acquainted with early Chaos Theory terminology (c1994). My big complaint is that there was far too little a connection with the fictional part. It seems to me that defeated the purpose of using the fictional story to clarify and illustrate the technical part.
