memories of .us 2025-11-11 How much do you remember from elementary school? I remember vinyl tile floors, the playground, the teacher sentencing me to standing in the hallway. I had a teacher who was a chess fanatic; he painted a huge chess board in the paved schoolyard and got someone to fabricate big wooden chess pieces. It was enough of an event to get us on the evening news. I remember Run for the Arts, where I tried to talk people into donating money on the theory that I could run, which I could not. I’m about six months into trying to change that and I’m good for a mediocre 5k now, but I don’t think that’s going to shift the balance on K-12 art funding. I also remember a domain name: bridger.pps.k12.or.us I have quipped before that computer science is a field mostly concerned…
