A film about Peter Rice – bet you’ve never heard of him.

(I hadn’t, but we should have).

I hadn’t heard of him either, but that’s less surprising in my case.

Are you going to get the book, ‘An Engineer Imagines’, Rev?

I was until I saw the price. $540 for a second hand copy!

That or give my credit card details to some download site for a “free” copy (and then probably find out they haven’t got it anyway).

Here’s one that’s a mere $405. How could you say no?

Ouch.

+ $35 postage!

I suspect there are a couple of computers in a fake bidding war for the few remaining copies.

Might check back in a few days to see if the price has gone negative.

I know how difficult it can be to get hard-to-find books …. I managed to get a rare copy of a book that I’ve been trying to find on & off for over twenty years. It can’t be found in any book shop, etc.

Interesting video…

In my experience the guru types are always a bit left of centre (and often don’t always fit into traditional workplaces)
