A thought without words




So I liked a style of chart on last.fm…

October 26th, 2006

…so I go to the page of the guy who made it, and read his profile a bit while looking for where his charts might be kept.  What I found intregued me:

 The gunslinger turned his eyes up to the faces in the leaves. A play was being enacted there for his amusement. Worlds rose and fell before him. Empires were built across shining sands where forever machines toiled in abstract electronic frenzies. Empires declined and fell. Wheels that had spun like silent liquid moved more slowly, began to squeak, began to scream, stopped. Sand choked the stainless steel gutters of concentric streets below dark skies full of stars like beds of cold jewels. And through it all, a dying wind of change blew, bringing with it the cinnamon smell of late October. The gunslinger watched as the world moved on.

I was terribly…ok, maybe not terribly, but felt somewhat less than satisfied with the Dark Tower series.  I can't set my finger on any one point, but mainly in the lack of the feeling I got when I read the above.  Of the first two or three books.  There is certainly enough room in the story for expansion by dedicated and talented fans. 

 

This chart, I find higly disturbing.

I think it was how the line took a completely dangerous turn at the second agricultural revolution.

My first run :

82% (god damn, you have to have it placed within like 1/3 of an inch for it to count)

Average Error, 42 miles - once I saw that it was keeping track I started getting a LOT more anal about placement.

Time,  642 seconds (got distracted halfway through) 

I think the only one I REALLY buttfucked was Missiouri.  It was a lot farther south than I imagined.
