»Fudgeripple Pouchhappy
While looking for a copy of "The Man Who Stole The Atlantic Ocean", I found that the Main Libray now has wireless internet access. Spiffy: perhaps I'll work there today, although the library does not have the book (which is no longer in print, but available for $15 from online secondhand booksellers).
A synopsis of the book: fat retired beach-goers find thmselves social outcasts, and take their revenge by secreting the Atlantic Ocean in the basement of their New Jersey club-house. The illustrations -- line drawings, if I remember aright -- of the protagonist, a Mr Fudgeripple Pouchhappy, delight. Eventually, kids save the day.
While we're discussing infrastructure in San Francisco, why is the SFPD's online crime map application so lame?
