The October issue of Scientific American has the first of a
new column called "Computer Recreation" (or something like that).
It replaces "Metamagical Themas", which replaced "Mathematical
Games".  I haven't read it yet, but it appears to be a description
of the structure of a spreadsheet program.  While I have been able
to infer a great deal about the insides, I am looking forward to
reading more detail.  I doubt if you will learn anything about any
particular spreadsheet program, but you may be able to consider them
more thoughtfully.

P.S. Is anybody going to miss Douglas Hofstader's column as much as
I am?
