"We're a small mountain community," he said, "and somebody with orange hair would stick out, other than in hunting season."

links (or chains of memory, or namedropping)

On the drive home I remembered why I had looked up 'eccentric'.  I was reading an article about

wearable computing and this led to reading a prof's bio (Thad Starner); I knew him as a fellow

student at MIT.  He mentioned that he had an Erdos number of 4.  I realized my number is 3,

through a prof I worked with as an undergrad.

Erdos was an eccentric.

FWIW at UCI I've shaken Carver Mead's hand and met Federico Faggin who was one of the 808x

originals.. once I got into Minsky's office when he was out and took copies of all his papers..
and his wife sat on my coat once.  She was
demonstrating a force-sensitive touch screen.
It was a CRT on springs with sensors.

Not an ivory tower groupie, but amusing to a yokel from upstate.

Take over mexico now

So *mexican* govt can name you and you get dragged off?

Time to occupy that failed nation, which has oil.  One shot, one kill.  Cheap.

And terminate the US vermin that allow this.

US fail: admitting foreign mercenaries as citizens

So Obama is admitting foreign mercenaries who have worked for the USG as citizens.

Rome did the same.

Folks in glass empires ought not fly drones.
