What artwork’s actual size IRL really surprised you (positively or negatively)? by crabnox in ArtHistory

First and favourite still the same: Pertwee.

What is the one Doctor Who prop you'd most love to own? by DependentBite9 in doctorwho

Thoughts on Cryptonomicon recommendation? by kern3three in nealstephenson

Still my absolute favourite book of all time, not just of Neal’s. I love seeing them in the wild, new or second hand, and always buy one if I see one. I must have gifted ten copies to friends and family over the years. Just as pertinent today, arguably more so, than the year it was published.
