Oh I love this!

I appreciate the 26:16, 2266, 2:26 in your stats!

It’s a beautiful book in print but I’ve also seen legitimate PDFs of the book. The physical copy may no longer be in print.

Some oldies but goodies here:

Out of Control (Kevin Kelly)

Artificial Life (Stephen Levy; the book that started it all for me)

Turtles, Termites, and Traffic Jams (Resnick)

Thinking in Systems (Meadows)

The Algorithmic Beauty of Plants (Lindenmayer)

How Life Works (a new book! Philip Ball)

I was excited to play it as soon as i saw your post. Super smooth! Nicely done.

I found the new Brick Sloped 4x4 in trans light blue in the new Mineral Collection set, see:

These are awesome!

Oh, where Been Stein’s character was explaining the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act from the 1930s that didn’t work and is thought to have worsened the Great Depression? Why would that ever be relevant today?

I don’t get it. Is this a communication issue? What is the gap that results in an end to funding a revolutionary medicinal approach?

The same Gary Larson as The Far Side?

The plants are very similar. They both have five-pointed flowers and form berries. If you didn’t know it was a potato plant, you could mistake it for nightshade or tomato just looking at the flowers and fruit. But i always wondered where the tubers came from - thanks for this link!

I’m hoping for a gift with purchase for Soundwave… such as a package of another cassette or two (Rumble + Ratbat?)… but nothing yet!

I believe the person who breaks it down is responsible for making sure all pieces are separate and that the ends aren’t damaged in the process, and starting the puzzle again requires a few shakes of the box first.

I’m guessing that you and I both had the same wrong pioneer for 11D, made more difficult because 18A works both ways.

This is awesome news! Thanks for sharing!

Horn Stacked 45 deg. with Axle Connectors (2142)! I was trying to figure out that piece on the first branch from the trunk of the Japanese maple. Looks like a similar piece appears just above the third branch from the trunk. Thanks!!
