How to get to Swarthmore, for geeks
Saturday, January 29th, 2005Last semester, when we invited Eben Moglen to Swarthmore (see Eben’s speech), Nathan wrote up these directions and sent them to Eben, just to prove that he’s a geek. Don’t try to actually use these to get here unless you’re a geek too.
switch (transportation_method){
case airplane:
transport(airplane, PHL);
if (feeling(important)) {
transport(cab, Swarthmore); }
else {
transport(SEPTA_R1, Center City);
transport(SEPTA_R3, Swarthmore); }
break;
case train:
transport(Amtrak, Philadelphia 30th St);
if (feeling(important) && liking(traffic)) {
transport(cab, Swarthmore); }
else {
transport(SEPTA_R3, Swarthmore); }
break;
case car:
get_directions(Mapquest);
transport(car, Swarthmore);
break;
}
