My friends are generally fairly rational, balanced human beings. But something unusual happened over the previous weekend. I was with a friend of mine Saturday night as we headed to a novel-writing session in London, and she was becoming increasingly agitated.

Some of you may recall the eloquent words I recently committed to the topic of Winamp’s sad descent into abandonment; feelings and experiences from years of my childhood, condensed into digestible and informative paragraphs. How silly would I feel if AOL ended up saying “oh, whoops, we’ve changed our minds”? Fairly silly, you might well…
Tesla and Edison have been at odds long after their death, but instead of dwelling on their well-known hatred of one another, let’s imagine how they would react to modern day inventions!

I will declare right off that this post is rife with spoilers, but to be honest if you still haven’t seen the final The IT Crowd episode, what have you been doing with your life? Go online now, find it, watch it right this second, and come back to me when you’re done. Don’t worry….
