Tom Lehrer inserted a citation for "Lobachevsky: "Analytic and Algebraic Topology of Locally Euclidean Metrizations of Infinitely Differentiable Reimannian Manifolds (unpublished)"(Bozhemoi!) into a paper he wrote for the NSA (when he was supposedly working for the AEC).

After dying, the best thing William F. Buckley did was to piss off Ayn Rand by quoting Whittaker Chambers' review of "Atlas Shrugged": "700 pages of ideological fabulism, I had to flog myself to read it."

My recommendation is to now go and read adrienne marie brown ("Emergent Strategy" is her first book).

If you're interested in a meditation on this, Howard Mansfield wrote a book about it; "The Same Ax, Twice". (There's a story about the old farmer who brags about using the same ax all his life; he's only had to replace the head twice and the handle three times...)

If you *must* have a phone at a protest, buy a burner phone. With cash. From a place you don't live or go. (*NOT* an airport, bus station, etc. store)
If you're arrested, exercise your right to remain silent.
Have a contact number memorized; failing that, write it on your forearm in indelible ink.

One of my favorite places. I've been there several times and I'll be there in early April for a week of contra dancing. The Cathedral tour (you get to see the supporting structure of the octagon and the view from the roof) is totally worth it!
