1999 suburban nightmare involving heavily fortified homesteads, garage-based nuclear power units, sexual programming and accelerated lifecycles, all in an exclusive walled neighborhood. Inevitable attack of the Christian militia, led by the computer-god INRI (Ideo-Neural Reintegrator) Mark II. Prognostication of primitive VR technology (typing gloves and worksuits) that looks rather like the current models. Dubbed "facetious" by "Washington Post," "Swiftian" by John Shirley, "cyberpunk Monty Python" by Yoshio Kobayashi.
