Re: Trouble in Archimedes

And someone once said that I was the one with too much time on my hands!!!

Holy narration, Batman! What has become of the world! When well-respected, known-to-be-nerdy, engineers turn to artistic prose - and it turns out to be both readable and entertaining - will all our assumptions about never mixing engineering and art have to fall by the wayside?! Will all the other universal constants be next?! What will become of our understanding of the world! * Could global understanding of the Lewis equation and Adaptive Huffman Coding be next?!

Tune in tomorrow and find out! Same Bat-time! Same Bat-channel!

(* just maybe it will be a slightly more fun place to be! Good job, Andy! )
