There are few experiences in life more stressful than navigating an unfamiliar city. Services such as Google Maps have made this somewhat easier by combining beautiful user interfaces with simple directions. All these services are based on data from a few mapping companies whose employees drive every road in America each year, making note of lane mergers, stop signs, and dead-end streets, all

I have an older SUV that lacks much of the padding and upholstry buyers expect nowadays. My radio is also kaput, and driving home one day this spurred an interesting idea: everybody's familiar with that "hairs stand up on the back of your neck" feeling you get from time to time. It is strongly correlated with dark, creepy places and a history of horror movie fandom. But what makes a place

I am not sure that this blog will ever reach a wide readership. I don't really seek one; really it's an outlet for me to get off my chest those ideas I have that are potentially important enough to be burdensome, but not potentially profitable enough (in a financial sense) to expend much effort on.
