	2.02: In the Kingdom of Mao Bell
		Mao Bell is responsible, among other things, for setting up such data networks in China.
		The Shanghai headquarters is on the waterfront of the Huangpu river between the Shanghai stock exchange and a tall hotel used during the war by the Japanese as a high-rise concentration camp.
		I established a foothold in a corner near the door and was met by Gao Kun, director of the import office of the Shanghai PTA, comfortable in a short-sleeved shirt.

	Geography's conquest of history in The Diamond Age
		Meanwhile Hackworth returns to the Celestial Kingdom where he is convicted in a show trial—orchestrated by Dr. X—for the crime of trafficking in stolen property.
		Zhang’s ‘long ride’ is an implicit reference to Mao Zedong’s Long March of 1934, and Stephenson’s use of the term ‘investigations’ invokes the title of Mao’s famous 1926 report on peasant uprisings in Hunan.
		Stephenson’s Celestial Kingdom recapitulates this idea, only now inwardness, cultural purity, and suspicion of outsiders is regarded as the only means by which an alternative to Western power can be envisioned.

	Special Circumstances: Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson
		Rudy (Rudolf von Hacklheber, a German mathematician in the WWII storyline) was not a real character, he is totally made up, but I think that he is a reasonably realistic sample of the kind of guy you might have seen running around Princeton at the time Turing was there, immediately before the war.
		Stephenson also states that Alan Turing spent some time during the war in Greenwich Village (New York City) working on voice encryption for Bell Labs.
		Later in the novel, Stephenson describes Turing using such a device which combines speech with white noise from a accompanying phonograph which is cancelled out at the receiver's end who has an identical phonograph playing.

	The Rise and Fall of Wired. Conclusion. By Stephen Downes
		Copywrong - the old adage was "information wants to be free" and Wired took it to heart in the early days, describing with praise those who fought the copyright demon.
		Thus we have Copywrong (Wired 1.3), In the Kingdom of Mao Bell (Wired 2.02), Patently Absurb (Wired 2.07), Satellite Pirates (Wired 2.08).
		In the new Wired, different cultures are more often trivialize, scorned, or depicted as societies with something fundamentally wrong with them and need to be fixed: Pachinko uber Alles (Wired 4.06), Computer Insect (Wired 4.07), The Great Firewall of China (Wired 5.06), Plotting Away in Margaritaville (Wired 5.07), and many more snippets in Flux.

		I have to admit that none of the ones I hadn't read were particularly good compared to his later work, but it's fun to see how far back his ideas for distributed republics, encrypted private electronic cash and the metaverse go.
		It's also enjoyable reading them from the omniscient perspective of almost ten years after they were written; In The Kingdom of Mao Bell is particularly good, although the accuracy of many of his predictions still remains to be seen.
		Part of the reason I've disappeared for over a month is because I've been completely immersed in organising the upcoming San Francisco live event for Perplex City.

		Surprisingly, it succeeds in its primary mission to provide the grand sweep of Indian history.
		In particular, to highlight the large ancient empires and the various regional kingdoms in medieval India.
		These parts of Indian history get lost in most published books on the history of India which either concentrate on the later period of the Mughal or British empires or dwell only on pre-Buddhist India mostly for jingoistic rhetoric.

		I don't particularly care if they march to the scene in a tight, professional formation in cadence, or if they can snap off a crisp salute.
		In fact, when that alarm bell rings, I want those guys to drop their instant ramen, quickly and carefully don their equipment, and haul ass over to the problem.
		I don't want them marching at double time, I want them to drive at three times the speed limit, obliterating any inanimate objects that dare to be in the path of the fire engine!
