WOULD. YOU. LIKE. TO. PLAY. A. GAME?



Emily has a game for us:

1. Grab the nearest book.

2. Open the book to page 23.

3. Find the fifth sentence.

4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

Okeydoke.
The entropy behind the shock is constant along a streamline, and |grad(S)| is used to designate the magnitude of the entropy gradient aligned as indicated in Fig. 1-6.
--- Hypersonic Flow Theory, Hayes and Probstein

Too geeky? Well, I have about three books which could be said to be the "nearest" book. Let's try another.

Hmmm. It's hard to know what's a sentence in this one.
-a --reset-access-time

Set access times of input files to now.
--- Linux in a Nutshell, Jessica Perry Hekman

OK, last try. It's even harder to figure out what's a sentence here.
Pro. Upon some book I love I'll pray for thee.
--- Two Gentlemen of Verona, William Shakespeare

Fun, eh?

HOW. ABOUT. A. NICE. GAME. OF. CHESS?

No?

LET'S. PLAY. GLOBAL. THERMONUCLEAR. WAR.
