Excursions

Excursions are entertaining, but not essential, side stories related to topics in the book. We wanted to make these available, but not clutter the book unnecessarily.  We also suspected that some (many?) of these would become obsolete or at least less relevant over time (which has turned out to be the case). 

It should probably also be noted that most of these were Adam's investigations, opinion, or commentary. Gerry was tolerant enough to let them all pass, but shouldn't be blamed for anything here.

Note: In January 2024, our archives experience a data loss event. Although almost all of the "Excursions" were recovered, they did not retain the original formatting. We lost images and embedded hyperlinks in the Excursion text, along with the correct text formatting. We are slowly trying to recreate the lost content. Thank you for your understanding.
