Buy Andrew's biography of Jean-François Champollion "Cracking the Egyptian Code": https://geni.us/WQwD
Very soon after the birth of the first written language - cuneiform - ancient Egypt developed its own writing: the hieroglyphic script, immortalised in the Rosetta Stone kept in the British Museum, which consists of a single royal edict, dated 196 BC, written in the hieroglyphic, demotic and Greek alphabetic scripts.
Andrew Robinson is the author of more than twenty-five books, issued by leading general and academic publishers. In addition to "Cracking the Egyptian Code", they include "The Last Man Who Knew Everything" (a biography of Thomas Young): https://geni.us/XIBXvR , and "Lost Languages: The Enigma of the World’s Undeciphered Scripts": https://geni.us/iqP0Q. A former literary editor of The Times Higher Education Supplement, he also writes reviews and features for newspapers, magazines and journals, in both the arts and sciences.
This talk was filmed in the Ri on 18 January 2019.

In this video, Robert explains his process for creating a PVC drip irrigation system for his raised square foot garden.
Robert also shows how he is using his rain barrel water system that can be controlled by his smart phone to turn the drip irrigation system on and off.
A comparison between class 200 and schedule 40 PVC is also performed, and Robert explains his thoughts between the two types.
Overall, Robert’s goal was to keep the overall cost low for creating a DIY PVC drip irrigation system but also making the system easy to disassemble, reassemble and flexible for different types of gardens.
