[off topic?] When William Gibson was researching 'Neuromancer' he spent a lot of time hanging out with hackers. They'd tell stories and he'd catch about a quarter of what they were talking about.

When it came to write the book he decided that he'd make the book like that, the reader would have to push though a lot of things that didn't make sense until they acquired more information.
