An opportunity to go above & beyond.
As I pored over the manuscript and materiel for this book, I stumbled across a passage concerning Rubber Ducky Day at Cray Computing.
Long story short, the employees at the company bristled at a change in company policy, and began releasing rubber duckies in the courtyard fountain. This stuck out in my mind, and when I came across this image in the Cray Computing photobook, I knew I had hit paydirt in regards to the concept for the book cover.
