"The weakness of all Utopias is this, that they take the greatest difficulty of man and assume it to be overcome, and then give an elaborate account of the overcoming of the smaller ones. They first assume that no man will want more than his share, and then are very ingenious in explaining whether his share will be delivered by motor-car or balloon." -- G.K. Chesterton, Mr Wells and the Giants (thanks to Patrick Juola)

Hey! Is that the Pat Juola who went to JHU (and grew up in Boise, Idaho)? If so, how is he doing these days? Is he still in Baltimore?

Yeah, it's me
I'm doing okay -- teaching at university in Pittsburgh, PA
and otherwise raising hell on the internet.
I'm at juola@mathcs.duq.edu if you want to get in touch more
formally.

'Jumping' inadvertantly' in your journal!... ;)

I wanted to tell you that the quote is beautiful.

Your journal is very interesting and enjoyable to read.
