Nonlinear

Colby Cosh Has a post which he warns might as well be written in Linear B if you are not Canadian. I hate to disappoint him, but it made some amount of sense to me, and I worked with a woman who would no doubt have understood every detail and quite possibly have recognized the names. I'm sure that there are plenty of USians who, if they have any exposure to the sport of curling, it is only thru the fiendish thingie scene in Help, but there are parts of this country with enough frozen lakes and persons of Scottish ancestry to actually support competitive rinks.

Besides, one can be completely mystified as to the role of sweepers and the nature of the tap-back, and still recognise failure to inform the rest of the team of the intended play as something not to do in the national championship.
