There Is No Cat

Hollering into the void since 2002

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. :-)

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
