Talking to Tom a couple of days ago, I said, “I’ve been spending so much time with your former students, it’s starting to warp the way I think.”
He raised his eyebrows at me.
“I mean,” I said, “I find myself thinking things like, ‘I could wire my coffee pot so it turns itself on when I hit ‘sleep’ on my alarm clock.’”
“Yep,” he said. “That’s what happens.”
