Maze generation is fun (I'm a big fan of Eller's algorithm), but why buy a book, when I can get all I need from a Google search?

You are right. However sometimes its nice to dig really deep into a structured explanation of a particular subject. For that, I like books.

I did some maze generation a long while back but I designed my own algorithms for it. I wish I had had this book then as it was a lot more difficult than I expected and it would probably have saved me a lot of time!

That's very cool you've worked through some of the algorithms on your own.
I stumbled into these ideas because of this book and I liked the explanations a lot. The book is actually well-written and interesting even as a survey into the maze algos.

For me, I don't have a tablet, and my Kindle doesn't do Google. And my bed is my best reading place; so opposite to a day's reading sitting up behind a monitor.

I started re-reading Petzold's Turing a week or so ago.

Very cool. And, definitely something you can read a few times.
I like the complexity of the ideas that they in turn make more ideas arise.

I did.

If you can't figure out the tempo, perhaps you should give it a rest.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Such local ballot include Marijuana legalization, LGBT issues, Minimal wages...

Here in Illinois we had a referendum to force our government to use transportation generated tax money only for transportation / infrastructure projects. They have been dipping into the proverbial cookie jar for decades while the roads and bridges suffer.
Looks like it passed with an 80% vote.
