celticdragonflyHaving a discussion with a long-distance dear as to how we need a transporter, darn it, and why don't all these engineers in our lives build one already?
Me: if I could just *grow* one
LDD: LOL
LDD: too bad you can't knit one
Me: oh yeah
LDD: a 7-league shawl
Me: I can knit a mobius strip. I can even knit a klein bottle.
LDD: there you go, surely a teleporting pair of socks is not beyond you
Me: you know... I can't find some of mine. It's possible that I *already have* knit a teleporting pair of socks - and just didn't have them on at the right moment.
Me: of course, I don't actually know where they went, so maybe just as well.
LDD: LOL
LDD: the beta version
Me: It could be that many socks are teleporting, and we just think the dryer eats them.
LDD: that could be it!
