"The 9 Billion Names of God". Great short story.

Absolutely top notch short story. The best last line of any short story I've ever read. Actually, sort of chilling.

Indeed it was! :-)

Not as chilling as the short story; "A Walk in the Dark" though! WOW that was some story too!

Yes quite good. But I find the following last line my personal favorite, and chilling...

"And strangest of all is it to hold my wife's hand again, and to think that I have counted her, and that she has counted me, among the dead."
