Prior to hearing this play, I was totally unfamiliar with Charles Babbage. This radio play is not only educational, but very entertaining! Radio plays can be very "talky," but that is not the case here. The acting is very good and the sound effects wonderful! The highlight, however, is the masterful script by Charles Moster. It is quite difficult to write such difficult technical material in a concise manner, which is also fun to hear! As one who has been involved in education for over 25 years, I would strongly urge teachers to use this play as a learning tool. Kudos to PRX and Camino Real for making available this great play be Charles Moster!
