  • The
    Example of a Fibonacci Spiral
    notes from Ability through The Road Not Taken contained approximately square images with grayish backgrounds and red curves which appear to have been torn from a blueprint. Placed together and properly sized, these images show a Fibonacci spiral. If Fibonacci values (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13) are assigned to the blocks, they appeared in the order 1, 1, 2, 5, 13, 3, 8 (The 3 and the 8 are arguable because they both appeared in The Road Not Taken).
  • In his notes for There's More Than One of Everything, Walter comments that he "had finally put the pieces together, but the answer should have been obvious all along." He continues, "S. S. Kresge would have understood." Walter attributes the precise dimensions of his laboratory to Kresge, who had founded a chain of dime stores that later became Kmart stores. Kresge was a philanthropist who, among other things, is the namesake of the factual building at Harvard University in whose basement Walter's fictional laboratory is placed.
  • Midnight skipped the #8 block in the sequence. Close examination reveals what looks like city blocks from an aerial view.
  • The Road Not Taken notes contained the last two blueprint segments completing the floorplan to Walter's Lab.
