There are lots of little jokes scattered through Vernor Vinge's new novel Rainbows End. You'll find characters involved in cryptography called Bob and Alice, and a university library named after Dr Suess.
Oops. Time to back up a bit. That library? It really is named after Dr Seuss. Or rather, his real name, Theodor Geisel.
Meet the amazing architecture of UCSD's Geisel Library.

Oh, the places we go!
