2. Pseudonym of P.M.A. (Paul Myron Anthony) Linebarger, (1911-1966), late of the US Army Psychological Warfare Service. Under Old Earth was apparently the last story he wrote before dying.
3. In computer science, the canonical generic exemplar of application, subroutine, or function, is "foo".
4. Eta Carinae, about 8000 light years from Earth, is the most massive known star in the Milky Way, M ~ 100 Sol. It is the most likely supernova candidate within the next few millennia, but in fact it could go at any moment.
5. Would that this were Superbowl number 30 (XXX).
