"from Kashmir to Louisiana to Minas Gerais"
Minas Gerais is the Brazilian state that I live, what a coincidence. I wonder if the author choose randomly...
- tnorthcutt 13y agoI grew up in Louisiana, and also wondered what the connection there was. It's not a state you see mentioned often (in a positive light, anyway).
- marijn 13y agoI exchanged a few emails with an underfunded high school teacher in Louisiana who was using the book to teach his students programming. Hence the reference.
- marijn 13y agoNope. I visited there once (some of my father's cousins emigrated to Brazil 40 years ago) and did recently receive an email from a reader in Belo Horizonte.
