Ruth McManusGUEST
well, it's part of a wonderful series of atlases.
Ruth McManusGUEST
So this is the third in a series from the Irish Historic Towns Atlas.
Ruth McManusGUEST
It's the third in the Suburbs series, and it is 192 pages.
Ruth McManusGUEST
So people might think, oh, Atlas, that's just maps, but there's a lot more to it than
Oliver CallanHOST
that.
Oliver CallanHOST
It looks stunning.

Ruth McManusGUEST
This is controversial.
Ruth McManusGUEST
So technically, it wasn't always in Drumcondra.
Connor MacIvorHOST
the mobile thing.
Connor MacIvorHOST
We went from paper maps, laminated paper maps, if you had the high dollar version of the Thomas Guide, here in Southern California, or an atlas.
Connor MacIvorHOST
Atlas? Yeah, atlas.
Connor MacIvorHOST
An interstate book, all 50 states, all 50 states in a book.
Connor MacIvorHOST
My dad had one.
Emily KaiserHOST
You can just use the printable ones or pull them up on the computer.
Emily KaiserHOST
We have a physical slash political, kind of like the maps in this Atlas wall map of Europe that I got because I thought it would be really helpful.
Emily KaiserHOST
So sometimes he'll still use the Atlas, sometimes the wall map, and sometimes the printable maps.
Emily KaiserHOST
I just find it helpful to keep up with fewer resources.
Liz CattrallHOST
Mm-hmm.
Stuart GeigerGUEST
And what we wanted to do is take those future projections and kind of work them into our pluvial modeling.
Stuart GeigerGUEST
But that's really hard to do because you go from saying, well, Atlas 14 says I'm going to have, you know, a hundred year storm in six hours, it's going to be 3.63 inches of rain.
Stuart GeigerGUEST
Well, you know, the local stormwater engineer, maybe he's got a decent idea of what 3.63 inches of rain looks like, but the general public, you know, when we get our weather forecasts, you know, we say maybe there's three to four inches of rain.
Stuart GeigerGUEST
And, you know, let alone with, the climate change component on there, 3.63 could become 4.12.
18 MINS LATER
Stuart GeigerGUEST
Uh, We didn't have the screens.
Stuart GeigerGUEST
We didn't have, you know, all the technology we have for kids today.
Stuart GeigerGUEST
And my time, a lot of my time was spent with the Atlas.
Stuart GeigerGUEST
And that love of maps really extended into school.
