An enjoyable break! Thanks. Getting into Eifeheim for my supper time read. Have you read Pierre Duhem's "Medieval Cosmology"? I wonder if Michael Flynn did?

Thank you! I have not but now that I know it exists, I really want to.

It wouldn’t surprise me to find out that Flynn knew about Pierre Duhem and was familiar with his work.

Aarron, where is your note on Tim Powers? I'm a subscriber to your Patron account but not Substack, although here we can DM. You can give me and your other Patrons access to Substack as if paid there too, if you like.

I don't think I have any paid notes on exclusive to Substack as of right now. I had a Patron only Tim Powers episode with Ben if that's what you mean.

I've switched my paid support for to Substack, as you may have noted. I was locked out of my Patreon account over three weeks ago and have been unable to get the situation fixed.

I'm very much enjoying Eifelheim and Michael Flynn, for a bunch of reasons, more than reading Tim Powers, I'm sorry to say. I'll be reading the conclusion of Eifelheim this evening, God willing. I've never read a story in which I've not anticipated the next turn every time! I'm now expecting to learn that Sharon has constructed her device and vanished into her "Trinity of Trinities" with some damage to the physics lab. If not, I get tagged out at Flynn's base again.

I'm sorry to hear that about Patreon. Did you need me to do anything on my end? I could try to cancel your subscription on Patreon so you are paying twice. Yes, I have been enjoying my reread of Eifelheim as well. He is a pithy writer with many quotable sections.
