Stone Age n (1864): The first known period of prehistoric human culture, characterized by the use of stone tools. This section is devoted to a collection of articles written by Andrew Stone of Stone Design. As some these articles were originally PostScript, they take a little bit of time to rework into a web page format. Consequently, I'll be adding articles as time permits. I would like to thank Andrew for giving me permission to add this valuable content to my site... and also for making great software.
