Entry 1029 — “Useless”
Well, well, my blog has been updated. Which means that uploading images into it is twice as hard as it used to be. Somehow, I seem to have gotten the cartoon by Randall Munroe below loaded. It’s from Strange Attractors, anthology of math-related poems JoAnne Growney and Sarah Glaz edited, and that I’m trying to use poems from in my Scientific American blog:
Yikes, no image, then one, then none, then three! No just one, I hope. I’ve been trying to get an e.mail to Randall without success. But his work is “This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 2.5 License.” Which means I’m free to use in non-commercially, as here (properly attributed). I might add that I consider all my work similarly free for non-commercial use so long as it’s attributed to me. Note: Randall would also like people stealing his work as I have here to let their readers know that it was taken from his website at http://xkcd.com–which the updated version of my blog won’t let me provide a link to for some reason.
