Boston Almanac

The Boston Almanac was an almanac and business directory in 19th century Boston, Massachusetts. Its offices were destroyed in the Great Boston Fire of 1872.[1] The first almanac was published in 1836, and continued annually until at least 1894. Just about all editions contained a chronology of major events in Boston for the previous year or two years. Each almanac contained business listings, advertisements, and often city and/or state department information. Railroad, omnibus, and horse car companies were usually listed in a separate section. Some volumes highlighted famous buildings or places (such as Mount Auburn Cemetery).

gollark: What queue and why does it not work?
gollark: Do you really need to post a screen of uncommented mysterious code directly in discord?
gollark: Plus associated functions to suspend coroutines and whatnot.
gollark: ```luawhile run do local ev = {cy()} for ID, co in pairs(coroutines) do if coroutine.status(co.coroutine) == "dead" then co.status = "dead" co.running = false end if co.running then _G.process.running_ID = ID local ok, err = coroutine.resume(co.coroutine, table.unpack(ev)) if not ok then if co.error_handler then co.error_handler(err) else run = false error = err end end end endend```is what I have for that.
gollark: When I say "process" I mean "coroutine with fancy metadata being run in a loop".
