I'll get a copy of an episode or two of Lost Room from
various sources. If it's up to scratch, I'll snatch up
the DVD release.

About that Three Days to Never, did anyone else think
it was half-a-novel? I think half the book-in-progress
was cut out so Powers could stop his editor nagging
him. I just feel with my gut that the time travel
thing was supposed to be way more complex and in depth
than ending with a Stanley Kubric light show.

I believe it to be one of Powers weakest books. Maybe
he just ran out of steam 25% of the way through.
