TASP 2003 at UT Austin: The Mystery of Creativity



reasonably remarkable



Sunday, September 21, 2003
As Jacob has begun a Dr. Monas cult, we [Jacob and I, conveniently online at the same time - thanks Adam for corrupting me with the evils of AIM] have taken advantage of the resources of our technological era and have googled him. Highlights of the results: the only picture of him on google image search, and a result title that reads: "Sidney Monas, St" (it continues on to St. Petersberg, 'but the line break is so fortuitous,' says Jacob).

We had no luck in finding his birthday (saint's day) and Jacob has suggested three alternatives: "i think we may have to email him," "just choose a day and declare it monasday," or "oh, should we make it vico's birthday? ... 6/23"

So we have to come to a decision, preferably without a house meeting debate. "oh, we can call it saint monas day," says Jacob. When will St. Monas Day be?
