Neil is really awesome! Besides a fork, Lottie needs some bread. So she can write her words with the ketchup and then eat them using the bread to clean the plate.
This page was originally posted on July 31st, 2013. Neil’s game was, I think, very different in 2013 than it is in 2023.
For instance, one of the things that’s common whenever I look at this page is that I have a computer in front of me. The sleek i7 laptop I’m looking at it on now is several orders of magnitude more powerful than the Pentium 133MMX laptop I had in 2003, but that’s not visible to the eye. It’s got a wider screen and a thinner body, but not really all that different. The look of the Web browser has changed a little, but I’m even running the same Linux distro with the same window manager theme.
The laptop I had in 2013 was bigger and bulkier than either my current one or the one I had in 2003, mainly because it had a larger screen (though lower-resolution than my current one) and full-sized keyboard. But same Linux distro, same window manager theme. Same Web browser. The real differences were inside, where they weren’t visible.
But in 1993? I was using a 286 desktop machine with an EGA CRT, running DOS. I had Windows 3.1 installed, but rarely used it. The Web existed, kind of, but nothing like it is today, or even in 2003, and I’d never even seen a Web browser at that point. I didn’t have direct Internet access, though I could get on BITNET through the college system’s VAX. Completely different world.

I hope Mildred brings a Venn Diagram to explain to Lottie why she must eat her words.
