One of the reasons I like reading George's writings is that it's a good place to pick up new words. From this month's newsletter, the word is callipygian. "[in a dumb network] you can send any kind of bits you want, from orotund speeches to encrypted credit cards to CAE netlists to first-step baby videos to callipygian ladies of the night." To save you a trip to the dictionary, callipygian is an adjective meaning beautifully proportions buttocks. In his address to the Pope defending capitalism I can report he did not use callipygian even once.
