  • From Waldo Toblerhttp://earth.nullschool.net .  "The same was done for the US recently.  It has also been applied to the tracks of gundreds of rental bicycles in London.  This is one of the best cartographic innovations of the century, though it's mostly the data availability."



  • From Robert Austin:  How to Hunt Elephants--Math style. 
  •      "Mathematicians hunt elephants by going to Africa, throwing out everything that is not an elephant, and catching one of whatever is left. 
  •      Professors of mathematics prove the existence of at least one elephant and leave the capture of an actual elephant as an exercise for one of their graduate students."
