@xgranade This is the pettiest of complaints but _right off the bat_ the author gets their folk history badly wrong.

I have a lot of complaints about the Eternal September framing in general, but forgetting that it was Eternal because it was the _general public_ getting access (through AOL, principally) and only September because it reminded old-timers of the annual new student rush, is appalling.

Grr argh.
