In a similar vein, pick up the book State of Fear also by Crichton. A
very good story, and it will make you think a little deeper about the
subject. If we're not off-topic enough, let me just say I think Crichton
is much better at think novels and research than Dan Brown. ;-) Plus,
it's easier to make a good movie about dinosaurs.

There's nothing remarkable about it. All one has to do is hit the
right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself.
