Critical reception
Record Collector wrote: "More experimental than the straight country of its predecessors, on which cellos and harpsichords dovetailed with more traditional Nashville instrumentation, Clark’s sly wit is in abundance on 'Comfort And Crazy' and 'Shade Of All Greens.'"[6]

gollark: After realizing I had absolutely no idea how the "general number field sieve" and such worked, I just decided to implement Pollard's ρ one, but it requires gcd which Lua doesn't have, so I'm looking up the Euclidean algorithm.
gollark: So I wanted to do it in a convoluted way, so I looked at a bunch of prime factorization algorithms.
gollark: So I thought it would be funny if potatOS shipped with a program to factor primes for you.
gollark: And it asks you to factorize a prime number, for purposes. This is extremely easy, but some people don't think to look it up.
