fatherly advice

Morning missive from my dad (in Taiwan):

Be aware of contaminated vegitable, especially lettuce and spinach !!

sigh, library

I miss being at a large research university with a big library. Though my school is part of a consortium of libraries (of other liberal arts colleges in the area), the collection still isn't nearly what I've been used to. For example, Nalo Hopkinson's co-edited collection of postcolonial science fiction and fantasy So Long Been Dreaming isn't available in the consortium. I'd like to skim it but don't really think it's something worth buying.
