Can you give us context? Cause I had to really think back to the book, which I read a couple of months ago.

Oh, right: Illegal Facilitator (I think).

That would have been more mellifluous; hence Milgrim could not possibly have come up with it.

Yeah, but I swear that Gibson used the term either inthe book or in interviews about the book.

Milgrim didn't come up with it. It was Brown. I think it was Illegal Facilitator, though.

Dur. Brown is who I meant, of course. And yes it is Illegal, not Illicit.

RobW posted a transcript from a Gibson interview with Brent Staples, that was the only Illict Facilitator reference I could find Gibson using. Where the hell did I come up with it then?

I read the damn book twice.

My memory is excercising its prerogative to morph behind my eyes.
