From today's featured article

T.S. Eliot was an early 20th century poet who cashed in on the pain caused by World War I by writing The Wasteland, a long poem with some clever classical allusions. His other big achievement was The Lovesong of J Alfred Prufrock, lamenting the passage of time and mortality or something.

He was buddies with Ezra Pound, the well-known fascist poet and antisemite.

He won a Nobel prize for literature.

Deep thoughts by Enki

In collaboration with some wealthy industrialists, Encyc has begun work on a project to store the sum of human knowledge on an exoplanet in the event that Earth (and Mars) fail due to some sort of global catastrophe. We have already begun assembling experts from every field, and we should have a reasonably comprehensive reference within the next few years. There are some technical details still to be worked out, especially having to do with our nuclear-powered storage technology, but we will get there. Enki (talk) 16:08, 31 March 2025 (EDT)
