Jeri Ellsworth - Youth On The Air 2021

How all through her life the Ham Radio operator community have been her mentors, ... But she could actually see and speak with them! They were a big part of getting the basic infrastructure of the internet going on IBM-PC computers. I remember the call-sign of a guy called Phil Quarn, KA9Q, I think, who wrote part of the TCP/IP stack, or maybe it was a PPP dialler of something, I forget. Quite a lot of this stuff ended up on early Linux systems too.

Roger Waters - Radio Waves (1987)

I had a copy of this album on cassette tape, that I must've bought at a motorway services somewhere, and I never bothered to look up what it said in Morse code. I never learned Morse code. I was quite interested by the bits in the film The Imitation Game, about Alan Turing where the radio operator (listener) talks about an aesthetic sense listening to someone else's "hand" tapping a key on the other side of the world, ...

I'll look that up: maybe start here A.C. Norman  Faster combinator reduction using stock hardware  in LFP '88: Proceedings of the 1988 ACM conference on LISP and functional programming.

That might explain the murals I mention in my recent untitled post , just before the post mentioning this video. I also just took this photo of Rafael Gonzales, born here in Tecate, B.C., who told me about a spring near here called Agua Fría , half way from Tecate to Loma Tova , where, a few decades ago, people used to go to have barbecues and stuff, but now he thinks it may be private land. If someone reading this has a Facebook account, please write a link to this post onto his FB page.
