As promised, an Amusing Epilogue.. –EDITED TO ADD: That’s Minion, still coping with the monkey aftermath.. come on people, he had a whole panel five months ago!– also, I usually treat typos with devil-may-care insouciance, but those were BAD, man. I need sleep. Now that really IS the end! There aren’t really any notes for…

You thought it would never happen! Its… Lovelace and Babbage vs The Organist! Part 11! TA DA!! Notses: — To those with deprived backgrounds: Dance Dance Revolution! The only way to navigate the punchcards of life: — I love Wheatstone’s fear of public speaking, though it’s hard to find primary sources.. there is this charming…

Belated, but (somewhat) more sober notes on the Organist 10. . Wheatstone – “Wheastone has given me some very striking counsels. I did not think the little man had such depth in him. I can’t write it all to you, or even a small part, but I know you will agree fully, with him when…

AKA, Act II part 1, because I totally have this whole thing planned out. Really! A heaping’ spoonful of NOTES: — All the concertina primary documents I KNOW…

As the ancient saying goes, “Audiences are like monkeys.  Give them a grape a day, not a whole bucket of bananas at once!” Sadly I am so constructed that buckets of bananas are my natural production unit.  And they don’t get much more bananas than this here.   It’s been a while, GOD KNOWS, so a…

This is a totally self-indulgent episode that has nothing to do with anything. What’s the use of Pictures and Conversations without NOTES? This episode is dedicated to Martin Gardner’s Annotated Alice, which I read until it fell apart; more recently I’ve been hugely enjoying Lewis Carroll in Numberland, a highly recommend little book, from whence…
