1. Newblog2011: 10/21/11 Smoot Update
The plaque at the beginning of the overpass from Cambridge to Boston says " + - 1 ear," and that the plaque was put there in 2008. That was something
that I knew within an hour after leaving the Internet yesterday, but there was nothing I could do to write about it online again until now, since I then had to attend to getting a place to stay for the night and don't have my own computer or unlimited Internet access.
I'm sure the plaque was there before I started talking about the smoot signs that had been repainted on the sidewalks along the overpass.
What can I say? I didn't know anything about smoots, had never noticed the plaque, and had previously written online about the fact that someone had threatened to bite my ear off.
M.I.T's information about smoots online had said "+ 1 ear."
I wasn't exactly scared the day when I first saw the " + - 1 ear" painted on the sidewalk; I did think that it was something I should mention, so I did.
Now I see that I was wrong or that I didn't have accurate information, and I'm correcting the error.
The other of my blog pages that have led up to this hopefully final one, are:
