Snow Crash, Chapters 11-15 — “POOR IMPULSE CONTROL”
It’s time for the first big info dump of Snow Crash as Hiro learns all about evil megalomaniacal Lord of Bandwidth L. Bob Rife, the hardcore religious fundamentalist who controls the world’s telecommunications networks. Also in this section, Y.T. helps a Rat Thing, partners up with Hiro to gather intel, and gives him the tip about Nuclear Fuzz-grunge. Later, at the Vitaly Chernobyl and the Meltdowns concert that Hiro is promoting, he’ll meet Lagos the Gargoyle, and get his first meatspace look at Raven.
