In Response To: Re: Monofilaments (7revor Smith) : Hm... I remember reading about shigawire in one of the prequels to Dune. Not
I tried reading some of the Dune prequels, sequels, whatever - none of 'em worked as well as the original. Ah, well. Anyway, the original book is where shigawire first appears, to my knowledge - the Imperial Saudakar (vicious special forces troops who thought they were best in the Galaxy until they came to Dune) conceal it in their hair for use as a garrotte if captured. I suspect that the use of monowire in fiction goes back to whenever it was first thought up by Science, whenever that was. I've seen it all over the place. |
