In one of the sessions students were encouraged to do a little exploration beyond the closed regions used for teaching. The list was more directed at academic/RL/historical connections rather than, say, storytelling so it is selective. My thanks to all on Kitely who run regions accessible to students on regular accounts. Once again, use of Kayaker's sailboats was a great icebreaker (not literally).

And yes, Micrographia is still horribly unfinished though it was fun to demo in front of the class as well as being a promo for a forthcoming display based on the book.
