“Racism,” so why didn’t you tell us about that?
For some reason my piece didn’t make the web edition. But feel free to read it at my blog. Konglish.
God knows I find it to be valuable and useful information whenever an article entitles “Websites to help make your life easier” starts out with:
But why stop in 1993? After all, wouldn’t we all get just so much value out of this article if we were able to learn the following:
“In 1822, as Charles Babbage was beginning his ruminations on what would eventually be conceptualized as the Difference Engine, he could scarcely have imagined that barely more than 120 years later, in 1946, more than half a world away in Pennsylvania, the ENIAC, one of the first electronic computers, would begin operations, heralding the birth of what we now know as the ‘computer age.’
Too bad for us, then, that in an article entitled ‘Websites to help make your life easier’, we find so much valuable column space devoted to not one, but two websites, when all of us are just so interested in finding out more about what happened way back in 1993 and thereafter. I suppose we’ll just all have to wait, biding our time sating our rabid meteorological tendencies (I know I feel like snowing on Boston all the time) over at the KMA website.
