A Complete list of John Allen's Roller Coasters
Allen's rides changed the way Americans thought about roller coasters and revived the coaster as both a popular attraction at amusement parks and proof that this ride could be a work of art.
While Allen did not provide the immediate media frenzy that Disneyland (and later its Matterhorn) did, it is the opinion of this author that he contributed just as much, if not more, to the success of both the traditional and theme parks which has continued to this day.

John Allen did not enjoy the educational advantages of the country boy of today, but went to school in a primitive log building in Clear Lake Township, at the same time assisting his father, with whom he remained until his enlistment, May 11, 1861, at St. Louis.

A bedraggled John Allen with Sue Cook on an experimental platform in the Solent in 1988
Broadcast radio has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember, maybe helped by not having a television at home when I was young.
While a student at Imperial College in London, I set about establishing a student radio station there, finally getting an AM licence in 1978, and from there slid into professional radio at BBC Radio London, when I decided not to finish my PhD, back in 1979.

 Innumeracy - John Allen Paulos
Paulos did get himself a gig at ABCNews.com clearing things up, and there are a few watchdogs and debunkers out there (generally ranting and raving very much at the periphery), but a more realistic solution lies in decreasing mass-innumeracy itself.
Paulos is right in his outrage: innumeracy -- like illiteracy -- is unacceptable, and the cost to society (in bad decisions made on the basis of bad and misunderstood maths) far too great.
Paulos does consider both the causes and the possible ways to decrease the prevalence of innumeracy, but his discussion and suggestions are necessarily barely elaborated on (he has a lot to get to in this short book).
