jurassic park................?

Michael Crichton wrote the book on which the movie was based. He's written quite a few scientific type thrillers. It was his big move, if I remember correctly. For a while there in the '90's he was the Midas of the literary world because of the movie. I haven't read the book, but found the premise of the movie to be very exciting. It's the sort of thing that people will look back on sometime in the future and either say, "What was that man thinking?" or "Wow, he really hit the nail on the head."
