Graphicacy

October 3, 2018

My pal Tommy gave this TED talk a few months ago, taking us all the way from oracy, literacy, and numeracy through to graphicacy — his specialty — in six minutes.  (Note especially the graphic of 2-letter Scrabble words.)


The famed Randy Rainbow re-imagines “Camelot” (“Kavanaugh“).


Long-time readers know that my infrastructure play — Great Lakes Dredge & Dock (“silt accumulates”) — has been at best a sleepy disappointment (after an initial great run with warrants and such).  Now that GLDD is showing signs of life, what to do?  This analysis suggests holding on.


Vote, volunteer, give.
