Over the years, there have been many inquiries to The Wreck regarding
Pointy Sticks and a vast wealth of information about Pointy Sticks is
scattered all over hell. I’d like to create a compendium of that
information and put it all on an easily accesiible web site before it
gets lost for all times.

You have done everyone a great service.

The pointy stick deserves to be enshrined in the Great Wrecklish Hall,
so as to be venerated by the postulants, and so as to confound the
prevaricators, who diminish its worth by misunderstanding its critical
importance.

The pointy stick was used on the first PSAD program (Pointy Stick
Assisted Design) in conjunction with the soft clay that would become
the first record of WoodDorker's plans.

It is a great pity that all the free plans, made with the assistance
of pointy sticks, were lost in the great conflagration of the library
of Alexandria, which shall never enjoy the codification and
accessification of the magnificent Google (son of Gogol, of whom Deja
was the penultimate expression).

Would that glory which was Rome have been so glorious without the
pointy stick to stake the tents of its vast armies?

Did not the Pre-Socratics base their sacred geometry, resulting in the
golden mean, on the first iterations of the pointy stick?

And the very Egyptians, themselves, contemplating the true point of a
properly rendered pointy stick; did they not acquire their
understanding of the pyramids through careful consideration of its
geometrical pointyness?

You have honored the pointy stick, and your honoring shall bring you
great honor, yer honor.
