A blockaded village, with a barrier of furniture? Were the locals keeping people out? Or preventing something from leaving...
Will our Grey Wardens find a haven? Perhaps by fleeing, or racing, to the sea…

A map showing South West England and Wales, labelled "Graph of British Rivers". Two river courses are shown, labelled 'Wye axis' and 'Exe axis'. Does anyone read these descriptions, or am I wasting my time?

Sigh.

The secret German weather station on the Arctic island of Svalbard. Part of the 'Weather War'.
The team, led by Lieutenant Wilhelm Dege, were the last German troops to surrender in WW2, finally doing so FOUR MONTHS after Germany had officially surrendered.

I don't have a reference handy other than Wiki, but I've certainly seen (repeatedly from the late 90s onwards) IBM credited for all the problems^Whard work on 4.x because Microsoft had put all their devs on OS/2.

Smiling lady in glasses, with blonde hair. (Dr Isaacson)
Feels a good day for a thread. So I would like to introduce you to a mostly forgotten, but actually rather pivotal figure in PC history.
Meet Dr Portia Isaacson Bass.
If it wasn't for something she did in 1981, we'd all still be forced to use IBM (or IBM-licensed) PCs right now. /1

Happy "Microsoft trying to force CoPilot subs" day in the UK for all who celebrate.
