Surely ewe've seen a RAM controller? Wool, I have!

I've been seriously considering making a "Sheep Cam" and putting
it on the web: a little vest for one of the sheep on my farm,
with a wireless video cam back to the house and out to the net,
with a solar trickle-charge to keep it afloat. I'd do it as a
promotion for a wool-related side-business that my wife wants to start.

In the novel "The Dechronization of Sam Magruder," a scientist sent
back to the late Cretaceous used quartzite slabs to send a message
to the future. See <http://www.acommonreader.com/8/8593.html> or
