Sherlock Holmes and the Giant Rat of Sumatra by Alan VannemanI liked this book just fine. Don't pay any attention to the fact that the author was a college buddy. I assure you, it's much more riveting than "Quenching Cross Sections for Electronic Energy Transfer Reactions Between Metastable Argon Atoms and Noble Gases and Small Molecules", which is far and away the most significant thing I ever wrote.
Welcome to Larry Piper's Vanity Web Site. This page has grown from its nascence in September, 2002, when it just had a few links to .pdf files about a visit to Japan, to what you see indexed below.
This current version was developed for a course in javascripting at UMass/Lowell. That is why there are some weird features (like the stupid graphical buttons on the front page and the cheesy style changer). It is likely that some things haven't been moved over from my former cheesy site. That site is dead, but most is still available from the Internet web archive (bless their hearts).
Also, I should apologize that some things don't quite work properly because of bugs in Internet Explorer. I worked very hard to acommodate IE, while conforming as much as possible to best practices. Recently, I discovered a new problem. Grrr. Of course if you have the good sense not to use IE, then there should be few problems.
