Just read that again yesterday after it was mentioned in one of the eulogies for Dan Simmons.

Wow! It that’s it, Dan Simmons is a terrific writer.

Thanks! It was linked on Instapundit by Sarah Hoyt but the link was hard to read on my phone. Copied and saved for future study. Dan Simmons had the time scale wrong but Europe is definitely headed that way. Reckon if President Trump has read this - he is willing to be more ruthless than other world leaders.
