As i was scanning through Gran Morrisons old column at www.grantmorrison.com, i found some fan mail from non other than an 18 year old Jason Louv:

Whuttup, Grant! Just want to say hello from myself and all of the other eighteen-year-old sunspot-mad genius kids currently carving out the outer edges of this giant fractal superstructure we call perceivable reality. We are the future and we are much cooler than you. Some of my companions said that "The Invisibles" almost scraped the edges of what we have planned for this world and that you're a neato guy, but you know what I always say: never trust anybody over thirty. I'll be coming after your reputation soon, so stay ready for some frenzied ideosphere flamewar. Your comics have changed my life too much for you to get off easily, baldy. You can check out the virulent memes coming your way over at http://www.king-mob.com, my starting point for dissolution of post-informational complexity.

Bastard.

P.S.: If you sign my guestbook, all of my friends will think I'm really cool. Please please please!

Jason Louv: Behold the post-informational man. "Survival = Anger X Imagination" --Sherman Alexie

Grant's response:
Thirty ? Never trust anybody over thirty ? William Brown say never trust anybody over eleven, old man. Check out Jason's site at the above address and see what you think of these Midwich Cuckoo-like youngsters and their 21st century meme-squirting philosophies. And sign his guestbook with my name.

If there's no spoon, who brought spoons into the conversation ?

Wikipedia yields no answer as to who is Jason Louv. Who is he?

Jason Louv...He did a most excellent job with my favorite Grant Morrison interview, Flick The Switch, for Disinformation. He is currently at the head of Ultraculture, which is going to be totally full of ass-kickery when it is fully operational. He was the editor for Generation Hex, and just seems like an all around cool guy.

Sn00p, thats really interesting that you found that. GM's old column was brilliance. I wish that mofo would start another one.

And as for Jason Louv's old website, King-Mob.com...does anyone know what it was like? It seems to be all but gone now.

And has anyone here met the guy?

I'm putting in a move to lock this thread as it just seems to be about gossiping about a fellow Barbelith member for no good reason. Snoop, imagine how embarassed you would be if someone did this about you.
