There Is No Cat

Groovy '60s Sounds from the Land of Smile!

Well, hey, web geeks are hot

Brief conversation with one of a group of five women on 4th Street while waiting at a stop light on the way back to the hotel from Break Bread With Brad tonight:

Woman (upon seeing my SXSW badge): Oh, is South by Southwest starting already?

Me: Yup. Started today.

Woman: (something about musicians that I don't remember exactly).

Me: Well, that starts later in the week. Right now it's just film people and web geeks.

Woman: Oh, web geeks get me so hot!

Woman 2: You're a film person, right?

Me: Sorry ladies, I'm married. :-)

Woman 2: We are too. :-)

Damn, I miss all the fun! Was this before or after we started taking? See ya around tomorrow at some time!

It was immediately before we started talking, Jakob. Couldn't have been more than three or four seconds after the "We are too" line that I looked from my left, where these ladies were, to my right, where you were.

What do you mean there is no cat?

"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."

- Albert Einstein, explaining radio
