More Randomness

At the museum yesterday we spotted a man on a nice little folding scooter: almost certainly this one. Either folds up or comes apart; the combination of small wheels, plastic seat, and small battery means that it's probably limited to light-duty, mainly indoor use, but it looks especially convenient for travel. A bit pricy, though.

From my Mom, a link to pomegranate.com, an art publishing house.

From [livejournal.com profile] gmcdavid, this post linking to an obituary for the last surviving member of Nicolas Bourbaki. I've read a couple of their books - crystal clear even with my rather limited high school French. Sad: another Great Old One gone.

As long as I'm clearing my tabs, here's a link to an article on organizing a web site with git, on linuxworld.com.

As a former library assistant in a university library (in my youth). I am saddened at the passing of the last of Nicholas Bourbaki collective.

Ain't pomegranate wonderful?
