you can lose 15 pounds really easy by wearing no clothes, not drinking or eating anything for 24 hours, and do some other things (Sweating?)
but those won't stay off

It wasn't that bad (assuming you meant the science content, not the writing style). Benford is a physics professor and his science extrapolations, while bordering on the fantastic, are based in then-current theory (as opposed to a lot of hand-waving that you'll find in SF authors not all that big on the science (Connie Willis, Harry Turtledove, etc.)) |
Y'know, I actually helped build the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Lab. I helped construct the power transmission line and helped build, test and install the kicker magnets that shunted the particles from the old, smaller collider (the AGS, Alternating Gradient Synchrotron) to RHIC.
Great place to work, BNL.
