“the loss of the old black boot” [HOUN] Brown boot, black boot — these two items of Sir Henry Baskerville's went missing at the Northumberland Hotel shortly after he arrived in London. And they begin to put Sherlock Holmes on the scent of The Hound of the Baskervilles. However, there's a wrinkle regarding the old black boot that persists throughout the story. George Fletcher, BSI ("The Cardboard Box") made a note of this curious detail for the very first time in The Papers on the Sundial, a 2020 publication from The Five Orange Pips.

Guest: Marvin Ryder, Associate Professor of Marketing, DeGroote School of Business, McMaster University - The acts of aggression from Russia has prompted many sports organizations to not only ban Russian athletes and cancel events in the country but also strip Vladimir Putin of his belts and statuses.

We are living in a "continuous ongoing tide of information and technology" according to our guest Noah Schumerth. Our other guest this week, George Fletcher shares that we carry enormous amounts of data in our pockets. What will smart cities provide as we distribute this information? How will communities trade off the availability of data and access for personal privacy? Can our libraries help democratize the wave of technology that is beginning to become embedded into our world? Do the benefits of #SmartCities outweigh the negatives? Could libraries be the plumb lines to help citizens balance and bridge the inequalities in our communities? Our conversation helps us answer these questions and more!
