		Operation Quicksilver (WWII) was a WWII plan by the Allies that was a sub-plan of Operation Fortitude
		Operation Quicksilver (1990s) was a plan to reduce the size of the United States Army in the early 1990s as a result of the end of the Cold War.
		Quicksilver possesses the superhuman ability to run, think and react at great speed; he has often claimed that the rest of the world seems to move, and think, in slow motion, which is what has led to his impatient, arrogant temper.

	Psychological warfare - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During WWII, psychological warfare was used effectively by the military as well.
		Erwin Rommel was the primary target of the psychological aspects of this operation: convinced that Patton would lead the invasion, as he was clearly the best Allied armour commander, Rommel was caught off-guard and unable to react strongly to the Normandy invasion, as Patton's illusionary FUSAG had not "yet" landed.
		The rise of Microsoft based on its control of operating system technology for most personal computers in the 1980s and 1990s proved that control of the most basic information elements of a system could yield a great deal of power to interfere with competitors and rivals.

		John Dee seems to be a clear inspiration for the Enoch of Quicksilver, but his longevity may be another Faust connection: the contract of Goethe's Faust means he cannot die until he is satisfied with the state of the world.
		In Quicksilver Enoch is sometimes associated with quicksilver (the element Mercurium, Mercur being the Roman name for Hermes).
		Enoch is described as a messenger and a trader in the beginning of Quicksilver and Hermes is the messenger of the gods and also the god of merchants (and thiefs).

		The plot takes a secondary role to the style, and to a certain extent the style drives the plot (well, that might be a bit of a stretch) and while Pynchon is one of the few who can pull it off, Stephenson's style doesn't really compare.
