[Dialogue] You will enjoy reading Playground by Richard Powers

[James Wiegel]

I did.  Oceans, islands, artificial intelligence, the last 50 years, Sheridan Road is mentioned, also East Garfield, children voting (what about the manta rays and corals??), lawyers, chess, Go, cleaning stations, a 92 year old Quebequise, …. One line I recall:  “ there are 2 types of games: finite games and infinite games — in finite games, the aim is to win; in infinite games, the aim is to keep playing”

Doug, I especially sense you would like this

of turning their lives
into a celebration
is not easy. Come and let us talk“.
