I could wish you spent more time in Second Life, as that’s my current VR drug of choice, but I can see where EVE is somewhat more relevant to your inspiration. Of course, from what I understand of EVE’s economy – those warmongers are what keeps mining worthwhile. I am tempted, except that I *hate* PvP and as I understand it, even in the high security areas, there’s still hunters out to kill off the noobs.
Thank you for sharing with us the news of Ann Crispin. She’s never gotten the full credit as a writer that she should have – the StarBridge series (http://www.amazon.com/StarBridge-1-Starbridge-ebook/dp/B009MSQWK8/) is one of the best series I’ve ever read.

Sad news indeed. I loved Ann’s work.
