This is for Jeff Cuscutis, who likes this sort of thing:
Massive Solar-Orbiting Electro-Mechanical Analytic Engine, Mark 6
This enormous Imperial space station, the size of a small moon or
asteroid, is in fact an immense analytic engine, a device capable of making
millions of calculations every day. Inside is kilometer after kilometer of
tubes and wheels, cranks and gears, all spinning and clacking, spitting out
an endless series of numbers for the Imperials scientists to decipher.

And the accompanying pictures are cool too (secret message to Jeff: can I
get a Phlogisticated Aether Torch?).
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
symbol, design element, et cetera mentioned in these pages is a
