i saw the movie the andromeda strain. this happened to people. and then all their blood instantly co-agulated.

i really liked that movie tbut the book was SO STINKIN BORING. . and i usually love michael crichton

I never saw Andromeda Strain, but i read the book. I liked it. I've read all the Chrichton books out there except Great Train Robbery, Disclosure, and AirFrame. he's a very visual writer, I like that.

of the ones you haven't read- the great train robbery is DEFINITELY worth reading, airframe is decent, and disclosure is...not neccessary.

I think I saw the movie, is it the one where they make copies of the keys in that gummy-paste, and then do something with a casket?
