Notes

  1. In trying to research the Ames Room on the Web, I find some references dating its construction to 1935, and others to 1946. I am curious about the discrepancy here; any reader who has reliable knowledge of the room's history and can explain the disagreement among the sources is encouraged to send email to this column at: http://ijcml-diversions@ccl.northwestern.edu.
