Citizen: Socrates, you are really annoying.

Socrates: Interesting argument. Can you tell me what is 'annoying'?

Citizen: The way you ask all these stupid questions, that's annoying.

Socrates: Would you say that a fly buzzing by your ear is also annoying?

Citizen: Yes, I would say that is annoying.

Socrates: But you define annoyance as asking questions, and a fly doesn't ask questions, so do you really know what annoyance is?

Citizen: I guess I don't know how to explain it.

Socrates: If you don't know what annoyance really is well enough to explain it, how can you be certain, then, that I am annoying?

Citizen: I am going to scream

Here are some photos of the un-boxed Hevelin Collection! Many thanks to student-worker, Nicole Williams, who did all the hard work. Laura H. took these nice pictures. There are thousands of pulp magazines and over 14,000 books on these shelves. I will be in Des Moines tomorrow at Demicon to talk about the un-boxing and our project to digitize 10,000 Hevelin fanzines. Hope to see some of you there.
