@mattmakai, about your Python code to make a phone call. . . Never mind! I figured out how to make it work.
Hi, @mattmakai . I get error messages when I try to run your Python code to make phone calls. No urlparse module, cannot import 'parse_qs'. Is there an easy fix?
Saw @mondaypunday on New Year's at the Helium Club in Philly. My favorite number is \aleph_1. Yay, pure math!

Hi, Scott. Which of my posts on data compression are you referring to?
Replying to @Roxie_Salt
Hi, Roxie. If you have any questions about material in the book, it's better to email me. I don't always see some of the tweets.
Replying to @amdphreak
Hi Ryan. Sorry that I haven't gotten back to you. It's been so busy around here. I'll take a look this weekend.

Replying to @TheRickWilson
@TheRickWilson I loved your discussion on the Drew U. forum this evening. Is it possible that DeSantis wins the primary and Trump divides the Republicans, handing the election to the Democrats?
