The sci-fi web comic Schlock Mercenary by Howard Taylor http://www.schlockmercenary.com/ features Dyson Spheres in a plot-line about a year-or-so back. Even includes the deliberate military destruction of a few. He does generally try to keep the physics in his universe reasonably credible, too. Sorry, no exact link, I live in China and today and yesterday huge chunks of the internet disapeared from my reach. General incompetence of the public IT sector over here is the most likely cause (yet again) or possibly but less likely large chunks of the world are sick of being port-scanned by trojaned Chinese domains (last PC I cleaned for someone here had 138 viruses/trojans/spywares!!!). :-( Cheers, Glenn. -------------------------------------------------------- Glenn Alexander (B.Teach, B.Ed Major IT Education, University of Wollongong Australia) Home site: http://www.shoalhaven.net.au/~glenalec Jabber: glenalec @ jabber.org I use GNU/Linux: http://www.gnu.org / http://www.linux.org from Debian: http://www.debian.org -------------------------------------------------------- Fight software piracy.
