Hey, Seb, I concur with Clark and have been meaning to link to your orbital simulator and some of your other stuff but all this other shit has come up, will be doing so soon. Let me know if you ever checked out Dwarf Fortress.

Hi Seb,

Just writing to express my admiration and gratitude for your blog, and the information you bring to my attention that I would not encounter otherwise, like these:

http://io9.com/5699159/how-ma-bell-shelved-the-future-for-60-years <--- growing up in the 50's and 60's I was quite aware of the role Bell Labs played in advancing technology; it is interesting to learn that they were also restricting it.

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/11/01/health/main7010145.shtml?tag=cbsnewsSectionsArea;cbsnewsSectionsArea.0 <--- this is not news to me, nor would it be to anyone else who has worked in administration or enforcement of law, but it's nice to see it affirmed by objective study
