When I mentioned that I was making a beeline to the shore, it is an idiom in English and this is what I meant.
While going through the levels and neighborhoods of the city, I mentioned World of Warcraft and specifically, the city of Stormwind.
As I got went down the list, I needed to describe the Lower Grottos level and for lack of a better term, I referred to it as the Red Light District… but it really is not about sex… it is just the place where there are lots of taverns and pubs.
I mentioned that I want to implement a hanging monorail in the city.

Ever since I watched The Sting as a child, I have loved Ragtime music. However, I am not a musician, composer, or even a particularly knowledgeable fan of music. I enjoy what I enjoy and that includes many different genres of music. However, Ragtime is the soundtrack for the era I am simulating and this may the first time that modern listeners may be exposed to it. So I am including some general Ragtime links and whatever information I can find on the particular tracks I used in this episode.
