I’ve been in Vermont’s “Northeast Kingdom” for about 11 years now – same place, I believe, when we exchanged messages some years ago.

Are you doing anything more/new these days in your “balanced base 3″ explorations?

Not quite sure how the last fits in – SNARC stands for “Spatial Numerical Association of Response Codes” and measures difference in left-hand vs. right-hand response times to small (1, 2, 3, 4) vs. large (6, 7, 8, 9) numbers, which varies depending on whether one’s primary language is read left-to-right or vice-versa.

A comic about the history of mathematics – looks interesting. Those interested in such works might find Neal Stephenson’s “Baroque Cycle” – a series of 3 historical novels – of interest. Key characters include Newton and Leibniz. There’s a wikipedia entry on these novels.

I’ve added categories and a melange of tags to get a feel for the structure or selectivity they provide.
