As I mentioned on Sunday, I tried out the Frankenhand device at Word on the Street. It’s alive. Aliiiiiiive! Of course, I was only signing to the other side of the tent, but it was still nerfty. Here’s a Globe story on the device that somehow manages to leave out the grass roots WotS event at which the device was displayed.

Except in the second or third paragraph, right?
The one that includes “speaking on a video monitor at the LongPen tent at Toronto’s Word on the Street literary festival”?

The Globe and Mail’s story sez:
“The recipient of the first book signed by the LongPen was author Patrick Boyer, who had won the right at a charity auction for PEN Canada.”
Is that THE Patrick Boyer? The former Member of Parliament for Etobicoke-Lakeshore in Toronto, Canada? The author of a book about historic referenda and plebiscites in Canada?

A colleague at PEN Canada confirms that the Patrick Boyer who became the first person to successfully use the LongPen is the same Patrick Boyer who served as an M.P. in Etobicoke-Lakeshore.
I know you were all breathlessly waiting for that news . . .
