Woodworker porn on the day is a table that becomes a desk with subtle compartments and workings.

Later it occurred to me, how much in that time, that desk was the equivalent of a laptop with email. It was how the ruling class communicated. By letter. Sealed, and hopefully private. Drafts and received correspondence were important targets of politics, war, commerce and romance. As a discrete piece, it hid its importance in plain sight and while it would be reasonably easy to force open, it would be evident.

We may have lost some things in our modern world of how we do email.

Time to re-exchange those GPG keys.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
