Any time of year, you can find it here..."

That reminds me, I once read a dystopic SF novel set in post-nuclear holocaust earth, in which priests carried signs with the golden arches as the religious symbol of their day, the way priests now carry crosses.

Can anybody help me remember the name of this book? It's bugging me now.

On Edit: The alert is correct. It does violate the SOP and it is Lounge bait (I cross-posted there), but even without the PhotoShop job, those are some really cool shots of the surface.

Note to wtmusic: next time post things like this in The Lounge, please.
